Comment on Audiologists raise concern over headphone use in young people

I kinda regard ANC and smart watches as pacifiers for adults. The real world is only going to hurt more the longer you stay attached to the teat.

Do you feel the same about other wearable tech, like clothes and shoes?

A bit with shoes if worn all the time. They destroy your arches, toe splay, and hip alignment with your spine. And you become dependant because your feet get so soft and sensitive. Plus people drag those dirty things all over their homes.
Calling shoes and clothes wearable tech is quite a stretch. Particularly compared to smart watches and headphones. Why did you make that false equivalence?

Yeah, I’m glad I married someone who’s adamant about not wearing shoes in the house.
