Injecting technology for technology's sake in a subpar manner into everything; often automating a simple humanistic element of life into cheap robotic annoyance. From that Ipad loaded with ads at your restaurant table, to the miserable robocustomer service representative. "Sorry, I didn't quite get that"
This phenomena arose as Boomers tried to stay relevant in their business careers. Operating under the universal assumption that more technology = good they jammed Boomertech into crevices of life where it's presence was never quite needed or wanted.

Boomer Tech (boomer technology) are technological inventions created in the 20th century or older (usually electronics but not necessarily). Boomers still use these in the 21st century even though there are other and usually better ways to do the same thing. One example of this is email and vinyl records.
Zoomer 1: My grandfather still uses email to communicate with us.
Zoomer 2: That's kinda cringe bro. That shit is Boomer Tech. My grandfather uses WhatsApp.
