Yep. Humans are lazy, greedy, and gullible. Give us a device which feeds our brains constant little dopamine hits and we will sacrifice anything for it.

Remember the experiments with rats and pigeons that could administer hits of plesure giving drugs? They all hit that button til they died. We are no different.

well, humans do teach and practice self control and restraint, so I wouldnt say we're all the same as rats. We just need more clever devices. The variety of content on the internet, constantly updating, means this can tailor to almost any taste.

Even then, sure. there have been extreme examples of such things like a few korean individuals dying in their rooms playing MMOs, not even taking enough care to feed themselves.
