    I fear for the future of reading comprehension. The article gives people multiple paragraphs of context to understand addiction as what is being talked about. I don’t expect the word to be wedged into every sentence about the same topic. Adam Mosseri was clearly doing everything in his playbook to not use the word addiction in a sentence.

    And Adam Mosseri knew better. We know he’s been confronted with evidence of addiction but doesn’t want to listen.

    But I do find it much more concerning that Analog appointed himself judge of bad articles, then either accidentally or intentionally omitted the preceding paragraphs that I had to quote for him.

      I fear for it currently if you think it’s okay to make up things people said and put it in a headline.
