The Amish get by all right.

Seriously, if you really believe you're better off without technology, you can live that way without going and living in the woods. Saying you're better off without technology from a smartphone is hypocrisy. I double down on that.

Because the Amish are a Christian organization that’s been around for over a hundred years.

Also, you still have to give up all your family and friends and live by strict Christian values. Not everyone’s cup of tea, especially if one happens to be different in some way.

Sure, but I'm not recommending anyone join the Amish, just pointing out it is possible to live without a lot of technological informed in your life if you truly believe you'd be better off that way. It would be extremely dumb, but it's possible.
