Dansker Forvandler Telefonen til Grayscale og Sletter WhatsApp – Sort of

alkoholisme - Asian hornets - biodiversitet - busbilletter - cannabis - digitale bøger - Grayscale - Israel - SAS - telefonafvænning - WhatsApp

En sjov og eksistentiel rejse gennem en telefonafvænning - hvad sker der n?

Mike Sadler, det sidste originale medlem af SAS, der navigerede gennem den nordafrikanske ørken under Anden Verdenskrig, er gået bort. I en anden del af verden kæmper folk i Sheffield for retfærdige busbilletter, mens Guardian fremhæver vigtigheden af fysiske bøger efter et cyberangreb på British Library. Kontrasten mellem digital sårbarhed og trygheden ved papirudgaver nuanceres.

Ami Ayalon, tidligere Shin Bet leder, mener, at Israel bør forhandle med fængslede indfødte for at opnå varig sikkerhed. Mens en forfatter deler sin kamp med moderrollen og cannabisafhængighed, mindes en tidligere alkoholiker næsten tilbagefaldet ved at spejle sig i Eltons kamp mod afhængighed.

Europa står over for en trussel mod biodiversitet, da Asian hornets dræber bier og Salvatore De Meo frygter for honningproduktionen. I en eksistentiel vending forsøger en forfatter at gøre sin telefonmindre tiltalende ved at ændre til Grayscale og slette WhatsApp. Rejsen gennem afvænning forbliver sjov og tankevækkende.
