re: "Low-quality and misleading information online can hijack people’s attention," Well, yeah. But frankly, it's the least of my worries (personal). My BS detector is sensitive enough that I don't get sucked into these type of pointless distractions. My problem is consuming things that are generally higher-quality, not misleading, are relatively interesting, etc. but are *for me* - at least for the foreseeable future - completely useless. I have to catch myself with, "Mark, you're not prepping for Jeopardy" or "Cocktail party fodder is cool, but you're not going to any cocktail parties anytime soon" and then try to move on to something useful. More and more that seems to be silence and my own thoughts. It's not easy. Often it's simple and easy to turn on some media source and be a passive consumer. "Don't make it think" but to a fault.
