What a horrible comment; totally without compassion or empathy; totally self-congratulating.

What do you propose people who find themselves unhappily addicted to smartphones do? Just feel bad about their lack of "character" and wish they were you?

I agree addiction is hard.

What is horrible about it? Just because some people cannot control themselves, should we support banning smartphones?
