Random Luddite opinion. No real data.

What a pessimistic person that blames pretty much everything on IT. Thankfully his arguments are void or self defeating.

If this article is a joke or satire, I didn't get it.

I think it is simply an article written by someone with a sufficiently different set of cultural values that a great deal of additional background information would be needed for it to be understandable.
