According what I found in the 'net:
What does it mean to be called a Luddite?
1. A Luddite is a person who dislikes technology, especially technological
devices that threaten existing jobs or interfere with personal privacy.
2. A Luddite is someone who is incompetent when using new technology. The
word Luddite has an interesting origin in pop culture of the early 1800's.
Is Luddite an insult?
Today, it's an insult to call someone a Luddite. But that's not fair to
the original Luddites - cloth workers who launched a war against the
machines that were taking their jobs.
