  Then you get socially isolated, simple as. It’s gotten to a point where even the government has started issuing digital only documents like the voter ID card. Not to mention some stores and services have no way of communication outside WhatsApp.

  The “good” thing is that, despite their steep price, basically everyone has a smartphone, even beggars carry them.

    I remember having a blast cursing the gov.br’s ass-backwards UX (one screen for login, the next screen you put the password) and its utter inability to fucking reset my fucking password. Seriously, the page would display a stupid javascript error clearly indicating that no-fucking-one tested that shit.
