One of the greatest challenges that I believe we aren't yet seeing thevtotal repurcussions from, but definitely will soon, is a lack of doing nothing. Our brains accomplish a ton when unengaged, things to do with chemical balances and neurotransmitter levels, and when people plug in any time they have a break, we lose those processes. These losses can lead to unbalances, causing mental illnesses such as anxiety and depression. In the "developed" world, all of these illnesses are significantly rising right now due to the use of electronics to put noise in any and all quiet time.
