The fact of always be connected to the net or technology is a global social problem that no one

wants to accept, but it is hurting everyone. I agree with what Murphy said in its article.
Personally, switching off or lay aside the phone when I am having a conversation or "spending
time with someone" is hard. We are pretending to have a conversation, but we are paying
more attention to the WhatsApp’s conversation or the post we are sharing in our story of what
there is in our table coffee, to what the person in front of us is saying. Also, as Murphy says
“when we leave the office, we continue to stay connected”; this is still more true. I think it is
hard for people to set boundaries in their work hours, so they bring their work home, and
when they actually get home do not spend time with the family, which increases the lack of
communication. Being always connected reduce the chance to socialize and the “face to face
human interaction” as Murphy mention. It is important to understand that being always
connected affects our health because we reduce our sleep cycle and therefore, our
performance because we are more tired or get stress more easily. Thus, Greenham
recommends switching off any kind of technology at least an hour before going to bed. It is a
fact that nowadays we cannot just stop using technology at all, but what we can do actually set
boundaries or reducing the time we are connected at the net and get more connected with
people face to face.
