> You act like engineering things that most people like is a bad thing.

Like or is being exploited based on genetical brain responses to like because of the result of the "quest for new information" ?

This behaviour is psychologically engineered to trigger more dopamine fueled hits and with it fueling site engagement.

Everything you like is based on brain responses. Fueling engagement with your product is only necessarily harmful if your product is harmful.

I hope you don't like music, movies, amusement park rides, love, etc., because I have some bad news for you.
