we are 100% separable from technology and we can “opt out” everything we want to opt out, every technology use is by choice and convenience and not necessity. my Dad does not have a mobile or internet and is doing just fine, the only “technology” that exists in his life in TV and a landline. so absolutely 100% of the technology you engage with is by your own choice and absolutely nothing else

absolutely not. Look at how roads and driving have shaped our entire lives in America. If by opting out you mean you can live alone in a hut, yes sure. If you want to participate meaningfully in society, no.
