Can You Stay Off Your Cell Phone for a Month? Challenge and Big Win : Most individuals are familiar with the concept of a ‘digital detox,’ which involves abstaining from the use of digital devices such as phones, computers, and social media for a specific period. Siggi’s Dairy, an American yogurt manufacturer, is encouraging individuals to take part in their Digital Detox Challenge. Participants stand a chance to win $10,000 (equivalent to Rs. 8.3 lakhs in Indian currency) along with various other prizes. As part of the digital detox initiative, participants are required to relinquish the use of their smartphones for a month by storing them in a lockbox. The winner of the competition will receive a flip phone, a prepaid SIM card, and three months’ worth of Siggi yogurt. According to Siggi’s, many people are consumed by their addiction to cell phones, with the average person spending 5.4 hours per day on their device.
