The number of households with landlines in the UK dipped below half to 47% this year, with 80% of those aged 65-plus still using landlines, compared to only 16% of under-25s.
The death of the landline represents an assertion of individual control and a shift towards personalized communication, contrasting the communal and unpredictable nature of traditional landlines.
