> You can’t fix a lack of emotional fortitude and insecurities with technology. These are mental health challenges exacerbated by the tools available.

I dont think the GP is suggesting that there's no technological changes required, just lamenting the root cause of the problem.

Similarly, technology can exacerbate gambling addictions, and we have measures we've put in place there.

It'll probably take some time to work that out though.

I don’t disagree with you. I would say that these are mental health challenges that can not only be exacerbated, but caused in the first place in some cases by having this technology so readily available. The other commenters’ point about gambling tech is a good one.

We live in a society with total propaganda immersion designed to keep you insecure so you consume consume consume.

So basically everyone is like this in some way, or will be.

How do you fix a "lack of emotional fortitude"? Can everyone succeed at that? How long does it take to fix?

The reality is that some people are emotionally vulnerable and our we should keep that in mind as we develop products. Most new products (and indeed all changes in society) have some kind of negative impact to someone, and we can't get that to zero, but we should strive to minimize the harm we do.

You can decide not to make the tools available.
