Not sure if this is the appropriate place to discuss a topic regarding technology, but since most of /lit/ seem- to prefer physical books to eReaders I wonder if there are other forms of technology you reject, or refuse to make use of. I think the literary lifestyle is essentially unplugged, though technology can make things like writing, and using a dictionary or translator much easier. Is there any benefit to keeping yourself unplugged?

have expressed my thoughts on the matter. The only reason I don't use a kindle or whatever is because I have a laptop that is perfectly serviceable for text.

I'm not talking about a complete withdrawal from tech. I'm wondering about selective withdrawals, or using older tech over newer tech, e.g. physical books instead of eReaders. Or maybe even using a simple cellphone vs a smartphone.
