Читать книгу Overcoming Internet Addiction For Dummies - David N. Greenfield - Страница 83

Information has taken on an entertaining quality, and it can keep our eyes onscreen for content providers to data-mine and to sell us things.

This is new stimulation to our brain, and our limbic reward center is scanning for novel and stimulating pieces of information.

Digital drug delivery is very similar to how drugs are metabolized in our bodies.
