At the time, the lightsaber wielding actress went so far as to say her use of both Instagram and Facebook would be forever «cut off like a Skywalker limb.» Ridley also publicly shared her beliefs regarding the adverse effects of social media and praised other celebrities for walking away from their respective accounts.
