Indeed. And the older generation can remember a time before smartphones. For younger people, the phone has become an extra appendage they barely notice they're using.

Thank you. This is your best one yet..so well written and thought provoking! I look around and see my friends so addicted to their phones. They laugh as they bombarded with ads and nudged with video clips to watch. They're wasting hours every day and these are a generation in their 60s and 70s. I note that younger people are probably scrolling most of their waking hours. We're slaves it seems...

Loved this. “Human mask” is so bang on. And so scary. That’s what currently freaks me out the most. The power we unknowingly give to it due to that mask

And the mask is getting ever more realistic and harder to discern by the day!
