Zahavasdad:
Firstly, you still haven’t answered the direct question I posed above regarding whether one should own a smartphone. And all you have offered is pure, unadulterated pointless extrapolation. Yes, people are abused, yes, it’s wrong, yes, we could probably do more to combat it. And therefore?
Unfettered Internet is an issue by itself. We could argue about whether it is a bigger issue than the one you’ve mentioned till the cows come home. You’d be wrong, but I can’t see that fazing you, it hasn’t so far. But it is still and issue, and one that must be dealt with. You yourself have pointed out that Internet use is widespread. To any person possessing logical thought, this means not that we should roll over and ignore the problem as it mutates and continues to ruin people, but that we should do even more to combat it. And for once, actually explain why you believe the Internet is not an issue we must address, and not just bring up other issues you feel are worse, both because they’re not and because there being other issues doesn’t sort out this one. And we can sort out this one.
