In November 2011, an iPhone 4 fell into my little hands. Back then, this mysterious, magical piece of smart technology seemed like the gateway to only fun and positive things: Words with Friends, a star chart app and an archaic version of Instagram, at the time designed for nothing more than applying cool filters to your low-res camera phone photos. 2011年11月，我拿到了一部iPhone 4。那个时候，这一神秘的、神奇的智能技术似乎是通往有趣积极事物的大门：Words with Friends是一个星图应用程序，也是Instagram的老版本，当时的设计无非是给低分辨率的手机加个冷色滤镜。 Fast-forward six years and five iPhones later, and like so many others, I had become chained to a smartphone universe. And recent reports reveal that I'm not alone. According to a 2017 study by Flurry, the average American spends five hours a day on smart devices and about 2.5 of those hours are spent in social, messaging, media and entertainment applications. 快速推进至6年后，那段时间又出了5部iPhone手机，和其他许多人一样，我已经与智能世界密不可分。最近的报告揭示，我并不是一个人。据2017年Flurry开展的一项研究表明，美国人平均每天在智能设备上花5个小时，其中，有两个半小时都是用于社交、短信、媒体和娱乐软件。 |
