I do not think anything can be done. The younger generations fully embrace the technological dystopia and do not see anything wrong with it at all. We are the last generation on earth without social media, mobile phones and QR codes and digital maps.

My young family members and their friends laugh at me when I bring this up and my tech-free home and old car. Put simply: it's too late. Only an EMP attack can save us which will result in hell on earth.

I have found my life to be extremely difficult embracing a low-tech lifestyle and it has prevented me from doing a lot and makes my life expensive, awkward, and I miss out on a lot of opportunities. Younger generations will not put up with this.
