technagoraphobia 

The fear of being in an open place away from technology. Tech (technology) + agoraphobia (the fear of open places) = the fear of open places without technology.
Richard could not enjoy camping because he didn't have his Palm Pilot, laptop and cell phone.
Fasting from technology, digital platforms, video conferencing, screen time , social media , streaming, television, computer and smartphone addictions.

Going technology-free in an effort to slow down, reconnect in real life IRL , nourish an analog life, experience nature, and cleanse from the digital chaos of social media .

Techfast is like nourishment for the spirit.
Timmy spends every summer in techfast, so you'll have to write him a letter on paper and post it via snail mail .

If I don't get my techfast, I start to feel overwhelmed by the demands of digital life.

techrags 

Low budget technology magazines or blogs, often mostly opinion and wild speculation more than any actual journalism.

"Dude, no they aren't. What awful techrags have you been reading to give you that idea?"

Technagitation 

The irrestible urge to throw your cell phone into the lake or out the window on the freeway, when all you want is a few moments of disconnectedness from the rest of the world!!
I've got such a severe case of technagitation, I'm gonna move to Kazikstan !!

techfactation

Technology-related affectation.

1. the act of taking on or displaying a technology aptitude or attitude not natural to oneself, one's position, one's education or not genuinely felt.

2. pretending you're smarter than you really are when it comes to anything computer-related.

3. blindly plugging and loving Apple products

4. talking about SCSI hard drive drivers on your facebook posts
If your facebook status is, "Frustration is... trying to install Windows 7 on a 2004 Dell PC"

then you're guilty of committing a techfactation.
