Comment on 'TikTok brain' may be coming for your kid's attention span

Vsauce made a video about attention spans getting shorter when it’s more so humans just get bored easily. If TikTok didn’t exist we would just find other means to cure our boredom. It was rock and roll music, comic books, then TVs, and now TikTok is the current generation thing to hate. It’s all about moderation.

How do we measure the extent to which addiction to an opiod is the addict’s fault vs the manufacturer & marketers of said opiod?
