"Dissatisfaction with modern technology and its trappings - including AI, subscriptions, data tracking, and algorithm-driven apps - is having an impact, with nearly half of Gen Z[ed] adults in the US (aged 18-29) would rather live in the past than the present day. This is from an NBC News survey of 3,009 people in the Gen Z[ed] bracket, who were quizzed on issues covering climate change and gun policy to personal finances and religion. The data showed 14% wanting to live 50 or more years in the past, with 33% percent keen to live less than 50 years in the past, given the choice" - <https://www.techradar.com/tech/too-many-subscriptions-worse-products-ai-hurtful-algorithms-spy-devices-nearly-half-of-gen-z-want-to-live-in-the-past-due-to-the-trappings-of-modern-tech> (It would appear that the solution to technology is a time machine, i.e. more technology.)
