There is a book called "the end of absence" that talks a bit about how people that were born before the 90's were the last that had a childhood without internet. It is quite interesting.

But I don't believe you should blame internet for your failures at all (if they are really failures in your opinion). Unless you really useinternet for most of your day and don't look for job or study opportunities. In fact internet is full of opportunities and free courses that can improve your career for example. So, maybe your problem is not internet but where are you spending time on it. Probably the wrong places online to develop your life.

So, I don't believe internet is the only answer to our problem, blaming it without having a clear view of your whole life, interests and so... You need a wide view before get to this conclusion.

Unless for sure, you are 90% of your time online on wrong places, in this case maybe I agree with your statement.
