What a silly spin. Do they even provide any evidence that "the rich" use less screens? There were some reports about some specific rich people not giving their kids phones (I think mainly Zuckerberg). But "the rich"?

And what is the message they want to convey? The rich use screens to exploit us? Or to get rich, don't use screens? Both notions are completely ridiculous.

The main takeaway I guess is that there are "the rich", and the rest of us. So unfair! I feel the rage building inside of me already. Hate the rich! My internet addiction is strictly their fault! How dare they build addictive services like Google or Facebook, and thereby ruin my life?

Wait, did I just waste 15 minutes reading the NYT? I guess they are to blame, too, if I don't become rich.
