"Tagaeri and Taromenane peoples, two indigenous nations living in “voluntary isolation” from modern society...". That passage really struck me. Love to hear their reasons! What a WA interview that would be!
It seems like a fascinating story! I was struck by it too-the Wikipedia article on the Tagaeri reads like the tip of a very interesting iceberg (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tagaeri).
"Tagae and his followers were among the Huaroani families who separated off in 1968 after refusing missionary settlement, and have since lived in voluntary isolation....Curaray Kichwa, who occasionally see them but avoid interacting with them, say these are the Tagaeri, speaking a language like that of the western Huaorani."
