Voices of Silicon Valley’s technologists and marketers are the loudest at the moment given they are akin to the horse’s mouth. Technologists, policymakers, lawyers, scholars, and civil society groups in many countries including India have been vocalising concern and firing up the conversation in respective communities. This is only a representative list, but a nod to all those who are steering the movement.
The impulse to check a message notification, the pull to visit YouTube, Facebook, or Twitter for just a few minutes, only to find yourself still tapping and scrolling an hour later. None of this is an accident. It is all just as their designers intended.
