For me, it feels far more subtle. As a kid, I remember roaming my town, playing in the woods, spontaneous trips to a beach, etc.
Now, random kids roaming isn't possible without risking calls to police or child services, accessing nature areas requires arriving early to ensure parking, and getting into a beach needs a reservation made weeks in advance
