A simple ban of internet ads going to fix that.
Will remove incentive to create addictive services, because then people attention and screen time will no longer bring profits, quite the opposite they will cause costs for running all these servers.
Will also fix media because if people paid for the content they wouldn’t pay anything for the media we have now. It’s not informative anymore it’s outrageous. This is because the clients are advertisers, and people are the product. Outrage causes traffic, and each page view generates profit. Mass media worked fine for the previous ~400 years because people who consume the content paid for it.
But yeah, making it happen going to be very hard politically. Still, I hope it’s possible over sufficient time, after the consequences to the society will become impossible to ignore.
