Not everyone.

There are still millions out there who have no access to the phone. They still prefer to send messages through other people who travel to a same destination.

My kids don't leave the house anymore. Neighborhood kids all on roblox or fornite. They just talk or text message. I watched my 8 yo son last night playing and texting. I told him at least it help him to write and spell better. I have to go places myself now.
