You were born to a world without the internet. It’s easy to get along without something in a world where it doesn’t exist or otherwise isn’t important. Existing without the internet today would be orders of magnitude more difficult.

Not for me, and it's my experience im talking about here. How can it be "difficult" to not use the internet? That's a very low bar for difficult isn't it?
