MIAmobi’s bag blocks data from coming in or out of your phones and tablets

MIAmobi is marketing a new range of bags that blocks incoming and outgoing data signals from your phone. It reportedly keeps your mobile devices safe from hackers and pesky marketers, and it’s a great way for users to “switch off” from their digital lives if even for a moment.
But with smartphones increasingly relying on data network for texts (think: iMessage or WhatsApp) and voice (like Skype), could we really afford to block data signals from our phones? If we really want to switch off digitally maybe we should just turn off our phones, tablets and computers, leave them at home and go for a short hike for some fresh air.
