Is smartphone addiction really a thing that needs this constant coverage? I use my phone quite often but I've never felt controlled by it or like I need it. Maybe people should just delete the apps that are causing problems, instead of downloading another app to manage it. Is this the smartphone equivalent of safe-injection sites?

An alcoholic would say the same exact thing. :-) Just sayin!

The reporters have smartphone addiction addiction. Deep down, they want to cover something else but...they...just...can't. :-)
