An intriguing question: could a temperance movement against digital services organize itself offline? Most, if not all, movements right now coalesce online. Perhaps people already forgot how to do this in the real world, much like they forgot how to navigate with paper maps.
And could they even still communicate effectively? Except landline and snail mail, what kind of possibilities are there left to exchange / propagate messages?
Pagers are (more or less) dead. Telegrams are dead. Fax is (more or less) dead. Newspapers are dying.
Amateur Radio, Flyers and public squares would still work, though.
I hope not. I refuse to go back to the loneliness I had before the internet. It is a wonder that I didn't kill myself before I exited my teens. My entire present life would have been a crapshoot before the internet - it is how I wound up meeting my spouse and moving overseas, after all (and yes, a stable relationship, over a decade long after moving).
> I wonder if we will see something like a temperance movement.
We probably already are seeing a form of it. With "temperance" to online advertising being adopted wholesale via the likes of Ublock Origin and other ad blockers.
Then there are the people who've Degoogled, Unfacebooked, (etc).
If (!) substantially more people continue to avoid Google, FB, (etc) it could become an actual Movement.
Hopefully it happens, in a positive (for humanity) way. :)
