I slutningen af bogen “Undoing Networks” fra 2021, om at frakoble sig det digitale, er der en brugbar ordforklaring (s. 79). Den kalder på at vi opdaterer analopædien. Begreber de har med, som vi mangler, er:

Analog Nostalgia:

Analog nostalgists feel that disconnecting from digital media and
engaging with analog media enhances their lives. They experience
the elaborate process of analog photography as rewarding; they
like the “authentic” sound of vinyl. Analog nostalgists feel that trav-
eling without Google Maps encourages them to talk to strangers
and enhances their knowledge of foreign places. Ironically, there
are digital apps like Hipstamatic, which aim to apply the aesthetics
of analog photography to digital pictures taken with smartphones.
Thus, analog nostalgia is hardly restricted to “old media” and can
also be lived out via “new media.” Significantly, the category of an-
alog media was only created with the emergence of digital media,
since it was not previously necessary to differentiate between the
two modes.

Break (Analog pause)

In popular discourses on disconnection, it is often argued that
we need to take a break, whether it be from constantly looking at
our phones, from refreshing our feeds on social media, or from
following the news. While digital detox holidays promise a break
from ubiquitous connectivity, the pursuit of analog hobbies claims
to create a break from our digitally organized everyday lives. In this
sense, digital connectivity is a state from which we need to take
a break, whereas the break itself is a state that is necessarily free
from digital media.

Dead Zones

Steder hvor der ikke er internet (som appen “White Spots” fx, hjælper en med at finde).

Digital Detox

The term “digital detox” describes a trend that seems to be insep-
arable from other current movements in support of mindfulness
and healthism. People who take good care of themselves not only
eat superfoods and practice yoga and meditation; they must also
“unplug” from time to time in order to “recharge.” Digital Detox®
is the name of a company “focused on helping people be more
present and improve the balance with technology use in their lives”

Digital Minimalism

Digital minimalists are people who are able to enjoy “offline” activities like reading a book, listening to other people or taking a walk without feeling the constant urge to check their phones. They can enjoy social events without needing to document them on Instagram and keep track of the news without suffering from information overload.

Digital Suicide

Faraday Cage

Faraday Cages were originally invented for the military and other
organizations as a means of protecting vital IT or delicate electrical
equipment from electromagnetic pulse attacks or lightning strikes.
They are also used to shield from eavesdropping rooms where
sensitive topics are being discussed. Because they block signals
only passively, Faraday Cages are legal and there is a range of
devices available for purchase on the open market. One look at
Amazon reveals the most popular ways in which Faraday Cages
are used: for shielding car keys, phones, and credit cards; or the
“blackout-privacy protection security 6 pieces ultra-thick prepping
kit” for more extensive protection.

Information Overload

Today, the discourse of information overload does not refer to
general societal change but rather to literally having too much
information. One argument made in popular discourse in favor
of disconnecting holds that individuals are overwhelmed by the
constant flow of information to which they are exposed in a world
of ubiquitous online news, social media, and commercial screens.
In “pre-digital times,” people would apparently watch the news
on public-service television once a day; they could trust that this
newscast contained everything important that they needed to
know and that public-service broadcasting was a reliable source.

Jamming

Originating in the military, the practice of jamming was (and partly
still is) used to prevent the reception of foreign signals, such as BBC
broadcasts in Nazi Germany or Western broadcasts in the Soviet
Union during the Cold War. Today, jamming used as an electronic
counterstrategy remains a form of censorship, but it is also used to
prevent the activation of bombs or for drone defense.

Right to disconnect

The “right to disconnect” is intended to protect employees from con-
stant availability by assuring them that they do not have to check
their e-mails or answer phone calls during nonworking hours. “Le
droit à la déconnexion,” as this right is called in the country where
it originated, is a response to the dissolving of boundaries between
work time and free time. The right to disconnect emerged in France
in 2001 as a means of assuring employees they are not obliged to
work at home or to take home their files and office equipment.
