Reminder that Johann Hari has been guilty in the past of plagiarism, fabricating stories, and maliciously editing the Wikipedia pages of his critics.

Stolen Focus, like his other works, has been criticized for failing to cite evidence for some of its claims and for misrepresenting scientific studies.

That doesn't mean he doesn't have valid points about the attention economy, but I think we should have a healthy skepticism.
