I would be the “Czar of Phones”. Many times I see parents walking with their children while they are looking at their phones. Today I saw a young woman interacting with her phone as she met her husband and walking with her child. The husband reached out and hugged the child but the woman continued to look at her phone. I wanted to reach over and grab her phone and say “Naughty girl! Pay attention to your daughter and your husband!”
As Czar of Phones I would have almost godlike power to control how people use their phones. They would not be allowed to pay attention to the device while in the presence of a living, breathing person. If they did, they would have their phone removed for two weeks while they meditate about how to relate to real people. If they were not associated with the person they are near they would not be permitted to use their phone in speaker mode.
People do not seem to realize a person you can actually touch has more immediate worth than a voice on a device.
