I feel it. Sometimes it gets terrible, the reflexive pulling up the Internet just to see what's out there. And I can feel what it does to my mind. When it gets really bad, I'll find myself pulling out my phone when I'm sitting on the toilet, when I'm sitting at the table eating, sitting in the hot tub. And of course sometimes at night in bed, if I wake up. Or even during work, to distract from some bit of unpleasant (but paid...) activity I should be doing. Yes, this is all somewhat of a reflection on my inability to push it away. I get quite angry at myself sometimes when my control slips and I feel hours of my day slipping into the void. But my professional life depends on Internet access. So I can't just put it down and walk away. I've considered blocking HN on my router, sometimes ;-).
