You’ve Got Luddites All Wrong
Of all the terms marshaled out to describe our relationship to technology, “Luddite” is maybe the most incorrectly and over-used. In modern parlance, it is a broad catchall for anyone who either fears, dislikes, opposes, or refuses to understand technology. It’s a synonym for “technophobe” — which is a travesty to the fearsome, machine-wrecking movement from which the term arose.
