Phones are fine. Social media is cancer, but Twitter specifically is a terminal case. The character limits encourage and amplify simplistic thinking and a mob mentality.
If you were going to design a digital lynch mob I don't know if you'd do anything different.
I was more thinking how nice it would be if everyone was forced to disconnect when they got away from home. I know way too many people that wouldn't be able to handle being away from their phone an hour and think it would be good for them.
But yeah, social media is waaay worse than phones. You're spot on it's a digital lynch mob.
