    presumably the idea is just to use/interact with the device on one’s own terms, rather than being harrassed by it into engagement?

    i do both, but they’re different things.

      Turning the internet on only when interacting with device does exactly that. That seems like the intuitive thing to do - yet I see people with it on all the time and it feels very bizarre.
