How? Why is someone reading a book on a mobile phone instead of a

I understand why some people don't want a smart phone but it seems
extraordinary to me that there are people who object so much to others
using one that they make a feeble attempt to prevent them. It is
particularly weird from people in this news group who you would expect
to understand how to use a computer.

a tiny screen no matter where they are or what they're doing.
Great when you have a friend's 30 something y/o son in your car and
they're glued to that screen... or in a doctor's waiting room, or the
supermarket... The other week in Launceston I saw this bloke mow his
lawn - for the whole time I watched him, I never saw him look away
from his fucking phone.
None of those people were doing you any harm at all.
They are ruining society.
