The process of reading an article in your feed with an incendiary
headline and re-sending it without reading the story blows me away. SO
many times the source is suspect or the headline misleading (if not
entirely incorrect). But it ties into people's dopamine hit...

The fact that these services are designed to be addictive is the rub.
How do grown people counter a service designed by behavioral scientists
- let alone children?
