People Prefer Death Over Putting Down Their Cell Phones

We all love our phones and they have become an integral part of our lives but just yesterday I saw two stories involving cell phones where people died that were very disturbing.

In the first one a young girl was live streaming while driving. She has an accident and her sister is thrown through the windshield. As her sister lay there bleeding, instead of giving any kind of aid to her sister she decides to pick her phone back up and continue filming to describe to her followers what is going on.

In the second story a group of teens witnessed a disabled man drowning and instead of trying to give any assistance they filmed laughed and joked as he drowned to death.

What do you think? Does viewing life through the lens of a cell phone create some artificial barrier that blocks humanity?
