Every generation probably since the dawn of fire, has said the same thing about technology. You dont' think people didn't say the same thing about books? or record players? or any other tech ever. It's the same thing as this generation being worse than the last generation or sluttier, or whatever.
Or as the Boss put it "Yeah, just sitting back trying to recapture little of the glory of, well time slips away and leaves you with nothing mister but boring stories of glory days"
Pining for the past or criticizing a generation because they do things differently is just that, letting time slip away. I'm not a fan of the people who live through their camera, but I don't criticize a whole generation, infact there's a massive sector of the millenials who are very anti-living through their phone. Not that you'd notice or care. It's easier to just make sweeping generalizations.
