Can we make Facebook a Schedule I narcotic? It's more addictive than marijuana. It's also taking plays out of the old tobacco playbook by working tirelessly to make it even more addictive. I'd rather see that than a bunch of Baby books that in a few decades all get bought back into the mothership again.


Nonsense. I quit it and didn’t miss it even for one day. Hacker news is far more addictive than Facebook.


That's great. I did as well. Some people can quit heroin, cigarettes, etc. Some people fall off the wagon and go back to bad habits. What's your point?


There is no evidence that Facebook is addictive. There is a difference between physical addiction and habit.
