I don’t find the article well written overall, but the points pointing to the importance of enabling the use of virtual technology to connect, rather than seen as addictive behavior, are valid. For example:
“consider a person with a physical disability in which face-to-face communication is difficult to achieve. For someone with limited mobility or large amounts of pain, getting out of the house may range from impractical to impossible. Consider sufferers of social anxieties, or autistic folk, who are barely able to communicate face-to-face, but whom are liberated by the digital space.”
