Perhaps we should consider regulating false advertising (in and out of the Internet) before trying such strange measures as "forbidding infinite scroll". Perhaps such regulation should include the form of false advertising we call click-bait (of which this article is, perhaps, a borderline case).
- tremon 11y agowhy do you consider this article click-bait? The content-to-link ratio of that page is extremely low. I agree that the HN link title is a bit sensationalist, but I'm a bit puzzled why the article itself would be bait-y.
- hliyan 11y agoPerhaps click-bait was too strong a word. Reading the article, I got the feeling the author crafted both the title and the content to stir up feelings on both ends of the opinion spectrum.
