The Luddite's were an interesting group of people. They were active in the early 1800s, they actively opposed machines and would attack places that had them with the purpose of smashing the machines. The Luddites saw machines as a threat the their jobs and their welfare. Now a person with out a cell phone or any such technology might be called a Luddite. However I don't think this is an accurate nickname. Luddites didn't just not have technology, they went around destroying it. If people were to go around smashing someone else's phonel, then it would be appropriate to lable them a Luddite.
