You should read up on the Sentinelese. They're one of the last uncontacted tribes in the world. They are notorious for rejecting all attempts to interact with the outside world, and will kill anyone who land on their island.

I listen to a lot of Rogan, so take what I’m about to say for what you will. There were plenty of incidences back when Indians roamed the lands where people from “modern society” of the time chose to live amongst the indigenous tribes, but the opposite where a native had moved to live in society was virtually nonexistent. Point being that maybe the old ways of life for human beings is far mote compelling of our hearts, minds and souls than we’d like to admit, despite all the things we’ve come to depend on as a modern society. Perhaps it is inhumane for advanced societies to interfere with tribal peoples.

Yes, there's more out there that the Fox watching crowd have no idea about.

The Andamanese are strictly protected by the Indian government. People have visited them on the island in the past and only ended up giving them diseases which spread and killed a bunch of them. Now the island is cordoned off and almost no one (even scientists) can visit them.

Indian Chief 'Two Eagles' was asked by a white government official, 'You have observed the white man for 90 years. You've seen his wars and his technological advances. You've seen his progress, and the damage he's done'.
The Chief nodded in agreement.
The official continued, 'Considering all these events, in your opinion, where did the white man go wrong?'
The Chief stared at the government official for over a minute and then calmly replied. 'When white man find land, Indians running it, no taxes, no debt, plenty buffalo, plenty beaver, clean water'.
Women did all the work, Medicine man free. Indian man spend all day hunting and fishing; all night having sex with wife.'
Then the chief leaned back and smiled. 'Only white man dumb enough to think he could improve system like that'.
