I understood the point of the article to be that it's addictive -- and intentionally so.
"...smartphones hook people using the same neural pathways as gambling and drugs."
We have laws regulating the others. Or in some countries, treatment programs. But either way, we don't just say "Cocaine is only a problem for those who choose to use it".
