This might protect children for a while but sooner or later they will become addicted to it.

We will have to modify/add this to our educational system, there is no other way around it or parents will have to teach children this themselves (which is problematic since adults themselves are also addicated so we are missing a huge part of the puzzle of how the mind truly works).

A lof of adults think they are not addicted to twitter/facebook/hackernews but they somehow magicaly find themselves browing hackernews and facebook "suddenly and for no reason at all".

This seems to be one of the few books that actually works in practice: it is about porn addiction but it seems to be applicable to social media addication also.

Skimmed through that book, it sounds like complete hogwash. Masturbation is evil + pseudoscience + "just quit bro".
