Contrary view: go nuclear. Did 30-day complete digital detox. First week = withdrawal symptoms (anxiety, phantom vibrations, FOMO). Second week = clarity emerging. Third week = rediscovered attention span. Fourth week = rebuilt relationship with technology on MY terms. Returned with strict boundaries + new perspective. Sometimes total reset necessary before moderation possible

I work in network operations so i can tell you what's actually happening: small local ISPs often massively oversell their capacity and use deep packet inspection to throttle video traffic specifically because it eats the most bandwidth. VPN hides the content type so they can't target it. It doesn't add speed - it just stops them from removing it
