I think we're around the point in time where it would be reasonable to establish a kind of "nature preserve" for people who collectively want to reject most of the post 2005 (or so) technology.

I want my car to have no ECU with an always on LTE backdoor

I want my streets to be free of facial recognition CCTV cameras

I want it to be normal to use physical cash for payments again

Mostly I only want tech that people use as a tool, rather than tech that uses people...

IIRC this "nature preserve" concept appeared in Brave New World.



So, like the Amish, but less extreme.
