Seventy-seven percent of middle-age Americans (35-54 years old) say they want to return to a time before society was “plugged in,” meaning a time before there was widespread internet and cell phone usage. As told by a new Harris Poll (via Fast Company), 63% of younger folks (18-34 years old) were also keen on returning to a pre-plugged-in world, despite that being a world they largely never had a chance to occupy.

Who's "we", white man? I've never had a Facebutt or Twitter account. Or any of the various Facebook sites.
Err "we" as inhabitants of the earth and users of the internet I guess. Even if you don't personally use social media, you are aware that plenty of others do and it has had a very significant impact on many individuals and societies around the world right?
It's the punch line to a Lone Ranger joke, when he and Tonto are surrounded by hostile Native Americans.
I realize lots of people use those services. And lots of people remain ignorant, eat junk food and fast food too. No one is forced to consume fast food or its media equivalents, at least not regularly.
