I do not agree.
I do not have a cell phone.
I think by now maybe half of humanity has been raised by television and is deeply under the influence of PR and advertising (also through TV series, blogs,..). The younger generations' deepest desires have been shaped by marketing.
They feel depressed and inferior, as if they and their lives are worthless if they do not own anything new. Their lives have no deep meaning, only products can give them a semblance of meaning.
It is clearly pathological.
