Seventy-seven percent of middle-age Americans (35-54 years old) say they want to return to a time before society was “plugged in,” meaning a time before there was widespread internet and cell phone usage. As told by a new Harris Poll (via Fast Company), 63% of younger folks (18-34 years old) were also keen on returning to a pre-plugged-in world, despite that being a world they largely never had a chance to occupy.
I too would be interested in the poll methodology and results - if there was such a poll. The Harris Poll website (https://theharrispoll.com/partners/media/fast-company/ ) doesn’t show any such poll - at least not that I could find after scrolling through pages and pages of polls and then keying ‘middle-aged americans’ into the search bar.
