there's also the cultural side of it. millions of people running around with pieces of plastic attached to their ears having loud and animated conversations with no one (physically present, anyway). kids struggling not only to have the latest name brand clothes, but the latest "disposable" hi-tech phone (which isn't in any way actually disposable). further increasing the terrible isolation of the average person. talking talking all the time but never any real interaction. and then there's the manufacturing of them. highly toxic and destructive and done mostly by slaves.
