Not necessarily everyone with a smartphone becomes addicted and uses it all the time. Its true that smartphones and their app ecosystems have become detrimental to society - but it’s entirely possible to practice some self control and keep your phone a tool (or a phone!) and not an extension of your hands. Im not saying it’s easy or even possible for everybody, im just saying there is quite a few steps between the “not human” and “human” states the author talks about. For lots of people in the world, owning a laptop is neither feasible or practical and they rely on smartphones instead. Maybe an helpful guide could be written about “Living sanely with a smartphone”
