We spend half our lives online nowadays and it’s obviously causing damage to our health. Do you think it would be worth the benefits to stop carrying a smartphone and to disable the WiFi at home?

    We spend half our lives online nowadays and it’s obviously causing damage to our health.

    Any time an argument begins with “obviously” alarm bells ring. If it’s obvious it must be easy to find a reference?

    Anyway, if I stopped using the Internet I would be immediately out of a job and unable to communicate with most of my friends. So even if there is some kind of health damage it probably still wouldn’t be worth it.
