I`ve had a cell phone in the past, but recently bought my first smart phone and an echo dot for all of my medical stuff such as appoitment reminders and tons of phone calls for appointments and such.

You do your deals through a letter box  :D
I personally have a mobile phone because of the safety issues when out driving or if I'm out cycling somewhere. No phone you're not able in a critical situation to get help.
Of course the authorities can find you easily too but as I'm no criminal I need not worry.

He doesn't even have an email address meaning he probably can't use a computer at all. I never want to be tech illiterate.

I've been completely psychologically dependent on a smartphone. I don't dare leave the apartment to walk 150 meters to the cornershop because what if 'something happens'? I didn't have a stationary or laptop for getbigging for many years either until recently. They way I see it smattphones are revolutionary in how they CAN improve your life, can check any fact or info at any time, can find where ny place is whereever you are and so on. OTOH they may cause some types of psychological damage, even anatomical damage when you bend your neck at all times (there's a Swedish term for it). You have all rhe info in the world at your fingertips. "But does it make you happier" the old folks say. Many old folks are against smartphones on principle, even solutions like where you can transfer cash immediately which is vey useful. You don't have to wait days for a bank transfer to go through... some old folks I know refuse these advancements and they have no good reason for it, just a distaste for new things.

It's strange that a lot of people will cover a camera on their laptop but not on a smart phone.
Could someone watch me taking a crap ? I do surf when taking a crap  ???

I had a few months recently with just my work phone and it was great. I'm fine with writing and sending emails, and eventually I'd quite like that to be my only form of communication. I need WhatsApp just now for speaking to family, but I'm fucking sick to death of colleagues spamming me with stupid work-related stuff on weekends. I can see myself eventually having no phone when I'm home permanently. I guess I'd miss Spotify, but there's probably some sort of modern iPod-type thing for that now.

Question is if youths are getting "smarter" or dumber. Certainly they know more facts about the world. My parents generation, the ones who didn't pursue higher education, peasants, knew "nothing" about anything, relatively speaking. Some think video games actually can develop the brain. My nephew said he learned English at 6-8 years old by watching others play video games on youtube. Internet also exposes people to dissident views, where you only used to have actual newspapers, which all of course had their agendas. As do all internet sources too, but at least you get a variety.

Yeah I know. :D I think they have done comparative studies on general knowledge and I think nordic countries have done pretty well. Americans often probably see the US as the whole world and don't concern themselves with the rest, and often aren't interested in US happenings either. Here the situation is the reverse, we care more about US developments than Swedish ones. A while back I heard on the radio Somalians complaining why news from Somalia weren't reported daily here lol. Who cares about Somalia?  ??? :D

Yes though I wonder how much indoctrination there used to be. I know we were told socialism and democracy were the best system, no discussion. It was a fact. Hitler worst person in history, fact. I doubt there's been much nuance ever, except perhaps in higher education. So most people were socialists and some were outright communists. Most old people remember the 70s and 80s very fondly, not much immigration either.

Yeah I remember we talked about the classifications, there can be leftist/right wing elements in all types of governments. National Socialist German Workers Party. :D Trump is extreme right wing, an actual dictator according to some. I don't dismiss that pejorative altogether though, people often actually crave a dictator who sets things right, and Trump said he wished he could initially be a dictator for a day or two. Trump also said he wishes he had generals like Hitler did. Although not recorded I have no doubt he said it, would very much be in his character. I don't remember who it was but the person he told it to said, Mr President, you can never say in public anything that could be construed as positive about Hitler or that regime  :D

They detested the upper classes and people who lived in extravagance.

Same with the Fascists, not against people having wealth itself, but those showing off and living in excessive luxury were considered degenerates and at worst parasites.

People calling Trump 'fascist' are absolutely clueless because it would be completely unacceptable for the leaders or party members to live in such levels of wealth.
