@ilyaz No, I was making a point. Rejection of technological advancement is just as reactionary (if not more so) than willing technological consumerism.

Technology is just a tool, just like anything else. Rely too much on it, and every problem looks like a nail. Reject it, and you fall behind.

The real problems with social media (and most problems people have with tech) are human problems, old as time; not tech problems. Tech just happens to shine a light on our worst natures.

That's a good thing. We can't fix a problem until we identify it. But we also can't expect fixing tech to fix human problems.

So, in your argument, if the "restraint" you mention is about using technology less, I believe that's misguided. If, however, it refers to restraining yourself from making human mistakes with technology (i.e. feeding the trolls), that's maturity. But the distinction is important.
