The best question to adress one of the societal issues of this time is:

Is it dangerous to text while engaged in other activities?

Explanation:

we, as a society, need to learn to live less behind screens and more in the real world

A. Does technology help or hinder meaningful communication?

Explanation:

The passage is here: At last he found Rebecca, smiling, holding Cara-Ann in her arms. She was dancing. They were too far away for Alex to reach them, and the distance felt irrevocable, a chasm that would keep him from ever again touching the delicate silk of Rebecca’s eyelids, or feeling, through his daughter’s ribs, the scramble of her heartbeat. Without the zoom, he couldn’t even see them. In desperation, he T’d Rebecca, pls wAt 4 me, my bUtiful wyf, then kept his zoom trained on her face until he saw her register the vibration, pause in her dancing, and reach for it.

This gap was reached from using technology. As you can see texting is not as meaningful as getting the point across is more difficult. If he had decided to find a way to speak in person, he could have more easily made a connection with them, but the accessibility of technology stopped him from doing so.

the eye wink at the hand; yet let that be / which the eye fears, when it is done, to see.
