Does anyone have some resources showing that social media is specifically designed to be addictive in order to maximize advertising revenue?
Trying to get a couple of friends to quit using facebook.
Leave them alone, nerd.
Point them to stallman.org/facebook.html - i'm not joking, i've actually spooked quite a few people with this. Convert them to GNU/Linux and tell them about the evil of google next. Have them use Firefox and searx.me

Indeed. It's so sad that this place is infested with retarded mixtures of /pol/ and /v/ who depend upon snapchat, instagram, twitter, and facebook to survive. In /pol/'s case they need to make fun of someones love interests out of context to survive.

Every form of commercial entertainment is designed to be addicting. How the fuck else do you think they make money?
