Generally agree with all of this. One of the most basic needs all people have is social companionship, and that isn't fulfilled via online interactions.

But the problem isn't necessarily the tech itself, it's using the technology as a substitute for socialization rather than a tool to aid it. If you're leveraging Facebook and other apps to meet people in real life you might not have been able to meet up with otherwise, it's great. If, instead, you're just pulling your phone out of your pocket every 10 seconds when you're out and using technology/gaming as a replacement for doing social activities, it's harmful.
