This has happened to me more than once...probably because it takes me 20+ years to finish a novel and by then the technology has totally changed!
So many plots don’t work now. Covid, cellphones, Google, street cameras—all fundamentally changed the human experience. Not to mention the performance aspect that now accompanies living. We live in a time of indiscriminate knowledge, where every answer is too easy, and laced with manipulation.
