In These Modern Times, Can You Ever Really Be Offline? [Video]

Recommended Videos

Here at Geekosystem we spend all our time online. All of it. It’s kind of what we do. Whether we’re on our computers, our phone, our tablets, our gaming consoles, or any other of the countless devices we own that connect us to the Internet, we’re somehow connected at all times. This new video from PBS Idea Channel asks the question of whether or not its even possible to be offline anymore, or if the line is so blurred that we’re all now online at all times. IS THIS THE MATRIX!?

They make some interesting points. So what do you think? Can you ever truly be offline anymore? If so much of our lives are in the virtual world, does it even matter anymore?
