So what? Don&#x27;t answer. Set up VIP email lists, or SMS. The tool isn&#x27;t the problem, it&#x27;s how you use it. I get more email that I don&#x27;t care about than I do care, so I don&#x27;t let email distract me, in that I silence it&#x27;s notifications. But that isn&#x27;t enough to keep a smartphone out of my pocket.
