Who'se Really Addicting You to Technology?-Nir&Far

from Nir And Far: Business, Behaviour and the Brain · host Nir Eyal

A steady stream of similar headlines accuse the Net and its offspring apps, social media sites and online games of addicting us to distraction. There’s little doubt that nearly everyone who comes in contact with the Net has difficulty disconnecting. Just look around. People everywhere are glued to their devices.
