description Socio-cultural approaches to the study of technology appropriation processes highlight the possibility that a technological device will not always be used in the planned ways. Based on a set of in-depth interviews with adult mobile phone users, this article analyzes the limits and resistances faced by some aspects of its use, related to three issues: the perception that certain uses are not of free choice but are explained by external pressures, the refusal to allocate amounts that are considered unjustified for the acquisition of the most sophisticated terminals and criticism of forms of use that are considered excessive. Consequently, these findings underline that the process of domestication of a technology, in this case mobile telephony, is never linear.

A partir de un conjunto de entrevistas en profundidad realizadas a usuarios adultos de teléfonos móviles, en este artículo se analizan los límites y resistencias que se plantean a algunos aspectos de su utilización, relacionados con tres cuestiones: la percepción de que ciertos usos no son de libre elección, sino que se explican por presiones externas; el rechazo a destinar montos que se entienden injustificados para la adquisición de las terminales más sofisticadas y la crítica a formas de uso que se consideran excesivas. Estos hallazgos subrayan que el proceso de domesticación de una tecnología, en este caso la telefonía móvil, nunca es lineal.Universidad Católica del Uruguay2019-10-262025-12-22T16:37:30Z2025-12-22T16:37:30Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.ucu.edu.uy/index.php/revistadixit/article/view/184910.22235/d.vi31.1849https://hdl.handle.net/10895/6026Dixit; No. 31 (2019): Dixit; 82-99Dixit; Núm. 31 (2019): Dixit; 82-99Dixit; N.º 31 (2019): Dixit; 82-990797-36911688-349710.22235/d.vi31reponame:LIBERIinstname:Universidad Católica del Uruguayinstacron:Universidad Católica del Uruguayspahttps://revistas.ucu.edu.uy/index.php/revistadixit/article/view/1849/1887info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:liberi.ucu.edu.uy:10895/60262026-06-16T06:53:11Z
