The author says they want freedom, but demands restrictions. They can't just make their own decision, they need to live everyone else's life too. This is part of a sustained attack on all internet users. They give multiple rationales.

Thousands of similar articles amount to brainwashing. The public is inundated with a false reality.

People like this claim to be injured by infinite scrolling, there is no way to have a consistent standard with claims that are so frivolous.

I expect a pile of down votes... my account is already tanked for similar reason. More manipulation of social media by people who claim to abhor it.

I mean, everyone has a choice where to put their att/int-ention. It takes a lot of boundary-setting to not get overwhelmed
