I know very little about Adbusters, but their recommendations (demands?) sound like throwing the baby out with the bathwater. Yeah, technology and the internet are harmful in many ways, but they're also very helpful in many ways. I also don't think it's realistic to ask people to give up all social media and devices, especially in post pandemic world where many things have moved online permanently. A better approach is to educate and encourage people to be mindful with their use of technology. Maybe the only way to be mindful with the internet is to give up all social media, I don't know. I definitely think you made the right choice when you got rid of Facebook. Logging on there is like drinking poison. There's no such thing as a responsible amount.
