Actually, yes, it does induce "drastic and rapid physical changes in your brain". This is well documented. The Shallows despite some of its faults, is excellent in this regard, with a bibliography that stretches pages. There was a CBS piece months ago detailing precisely this.
- jnordwick 9y agoWhat i mean by drastic and rapid change is like how drugs affect the brain. We have no evidence that happens, and a lot that says it doesn't. Except for gambling, process addictions have been removed from the dsm because of a lack of evidence that shows addiction in the typical clinical sense. And for those that really literally compare fb to illegals drugs, they're complete idiots not to be taken seriously. It is so far divorced from every bit of evidence we have, i think they are more trying to push a particular narrative.
