Scheduled radio and television ruined family time for almost 100 years, and more or less prevented many families and friends from going out evenings and do something else. I'm not sad to see it go.
Even as a child; I would often hometape programmes instead of being dependent of the clock all the time. If I played with my friends in the afternoon after school, I home-taped programmes and watched during early evenings. These days, I only watch live broadcastings like sports at the time they air. The rest, I stream a day later or so, using each channel's play service to skip the boring commercials. Then of course, there's the Youtube but that's more for watching video clips...

Now families and friends just have their nose stuck on their smartphones, watching streaming and videos while out in public or at home. I see it all the time. I'm often the only one in a restaurant without my phone out, even my spouse has his phone on him, reading through posts on Reddit or watching Twitch. I hate it. |

I also never use my phone for internet. I only use interne on my monster computer whis ic 10000 times better and morethan any phone will ever be and Some of my friends does it and fortunately most of them dont do it. It is sad to see so many people in do it even when they are out with their friends and family. Mostly are people who are obessed with twitter or facebook or youtube and want to check all the time if they have some new messages or something. And now that we have this discussion i just finished watching a movie about it. it was about some teenagers who went to a camp that was about making kids forget about technology and do other activities.
