A lot of these same objections apply to books and reading.

But a headline “Books and reading are a threat to essential components of our humanity” would not be regarded as serious.

It's a sentiment pretty much as old as time.

With all due respect, but I don't think you read the article.

Phone usage patterns and the interruptions they cause are wildly different than book reading.
