This is the logic of economics based on infinite growth and advertising which accounts for a great deal of modern 'IT'. Companies hacking the human brains availability heuristic need to out-advertise their peers. So they're all stuck on an arms race treadmill. They can only pause if a competitor falls by the wayside, but of course soon will come another...

It doesn't matter if the users find their services frustrating or depressing just so long as they're compelled to keep _looking_ at them.
