And supposedly, this is what we call "progress". It must be progress, you see, because the phones are faster and more powerful than ever.
Yeah, and still all those dorks in Silicon Valley can't invent a phone that doesn't drop calls like Alexander Graham Bell did in the 1800's.
Or make a battery that lasts as long as a Duracell in a f*cking flashlight.

I agree with the sentiment that this is completely abominable behavior and that this generation is fucked up, but I think it's important for us to keep in mind that there is nothing unusual about these kids, and I mean that in the biological and cultural sense. They are simply normal human beings responding to their cultural environment. The humans aren't the problem. It's the culture and the technology that is producing these effects.
I have to disagree with this.
Being young is about rebelling against what is normal/status quo.
I don't see kids rebelling against technology.
They embrace it like sheep.
