Spre o filosofie de utilizare a tehnologiei: minimalismul digital
Towards a Philosophy of Technology Use: Digital Minimalism

Summary/Abstract: Digital technology is an essential part ofcontemporary life. It is found in almost all areas of professionalactivity, but also in our personal life, in our family and in ourhomes, transforming our relationships with others: relatives,friends, colleagues and even with ourselves, leading to a „digitalself” – term used by the experts to describe the new phenomenon. After twenty years of research, it is found that, beyond thepositive aspects and improvements that digital devices can bringto our lives, in the absence of self-control and discernment, carefulconduct, a digital philosophy and ethics, they can cause manyforms of compulsive behaviour, cyber addictions, loneliness anddepression. Confronted with these unwanted negative effects, specialists recommend the adoption of appropriate digital conduct principles, a „digital ethics”, a „family digital strategic plan”, some of their forms constituting „an appropriate digital parenting”towards children and teenagers, and a „digital detox” and „digital minimalism”, in the case of adults.
