    I’m tired of tech being everywhere from cars to toasters I still prefer analog things that do the job and only that job.

    I don’t need my internet connected fridg to tell me what groceries to buy while selling my data to insurance companies

      Had a similar experience when SCUBA diving recently. New pressure gauges these days are digital and I still think the analog ones are not only prettier, but also functionally more convenient. You don’t need to be able to read numbers to know you’re getting into the red. Maybe they have some extra feature but I didn’t need it.

      you don’t have to buy tech devices. they sell non tech fridges dude.

      you can also just not use the tech in your car/tv/etc. nobody is forcing you to connect it and use it.
