After successfully recuperating tiktok, politicians are going to once again exploit pseudo-science to outlaw the “infinite scroll.” Get ready for the comeback of the pager. Thanks libs!

    I do not argue the infinite scrolling is good or bad. I am against the regulation itself. Who are the people that want to tell me which tech solution I am allowed to use or implement? Mostly I am not a fan of big tech but people should take responsibility for their actions and stay free. The goverments are here to serve and I do not pay for this service. Who are those that need to be protected from themselves by governmental authorities? Children, ok. People with damaged brain, ok. But otherwise? Give me a break.

      It’s children and teenagers, nobody wants to take away your doomscrolling.

      I think this is a good thing conceptually, but in reality there are problems like age verification and stuff…
