Obligatory Conformism

Nowadays technology reigns supreme. Can you even imagine your life without your mobile? If you are young, you can't. If you are not too young you can, because you remember a time when cellphones did not exist. But, today, even the older people would never go back to landlines. They, too, feel that having a mobile is a 'must' because, if they don't, they can't have a social life. Here a puzzling doubt might arise: As the use of technology has given you better means of communication, for instance, how free are you to choose if you want to use it or not? You may answer that anyone is free not to have a mobile. You would be right but, at the same time, you can't deny that, if one chooses not to conform, they lose the freedom that "all" people previously had.
