I have noticed that people, mainly the younger crowd, have an anxious attachment to their phones and other devices. In classes, in public and even while spending quality time with others, the phone will always win over the user’s attention. It has become an impulse to fill the bored and quiet minutes of the day with mindless social media usage. I am just as bad, because I can’t even begin to tally up how many 30-minute chunks of my day I’ve thrown away on Instagram.
