The United Kingdom shares a 310-mile land border with the Republic of Ireland. As it stands right now, the Irish border is open. People cross it daily. Commerce flows from the North to the South unhindered. A so-called hard border is undesirable for a lot of reasons (which Ill get to later).

Yet our reliance on technology to see the social world around us can be a heavy burden. Even so, many would find the prospect of living offline worrisome, or simply impossible.
