Watching Netflix can be beneficial. There is really good educational content there. It is awesome for humanity and can help people in different situations. I am really surprised to hear that one can ask themselves if it is bad for humanity
- stabbles 8y agoLet's watch educational content and chill!
- TeMPOraL 8y agoYou sound like a 10yo telling their parents they want more computer time for... learning :).
- parasubvert 8y agoWith my 10 year old, he’ll need to watch some minimum amount of educational content online to balance out the other stuff. Generally he does this (or plays math/word/science games). And if he doesn’t, strangely our internet connection gets slow on his devices. Shucks, I guess it’s time to read a book.
- pbasista 8y ago> Watching Netflix can be beneficial. No one disputes that. The reason why people consider it harmful is that frequent watching, which is the platform's #1 priority, creates addiction.
- pbhjpbhj 8y agoIt's not really addiction that worries me, it's habituation. TV is absorbing, as a child with 3/4 channels there was often a time when the was nothing of interest and that helps one week interest elsewhere (aka boredom). If there's no point at which there's nothing interesting to watch it's easy to sit and absorb stimuli out of habit. Maybe addiction can develop, does develop? If you do an action habitually you're still doing the same physically as perhaps you would as an addict.
