I was wondering how you spell luddite the other day and was then curious where that term even comes from. The luddites were a bunch of textile workers and their motives were to oppose technological change, because that change disrupted their livelihoods.

And the term luddite seems to originate from the first dude who smashed some machine, and his surename was Ludd.

Don't be a luddite.
