You are loosely comparing a large smartphone with tobacco; yet the reality is that an iPhone is more like matches: you can use it to start a campfire, light a stove to cook some kale or use them to smoke crack. It’s your choice what you do with the matches and it certainly isn’t the match manufacturer’s fault people choose to light the crackpipe rather than “healthier” options.
If I understand you correctly, it’s the phone fault people are addicted to bad content? The phone is just too easy to use, too high quality that unwitting victims are just defenseless? If we are talking kids, that’s a parent problem, but if we are talking adults, then it’s a problem of self-responsibility. Grocery stores have plenty of ice cream for sale: it’s up to you to not buy and eat it all the time. Grown ups ought to act like it instead of blaming shiny objects of their own obsessions. Adults aren’t victims of their phones.
