The abstract mentions limiting social media use to about 30 minutes a day. Why not eliminate it completely? I'd imagine the gains from maintaining relationships can be found elsewhere (e.g. phone calls or real life meetups).

Has there been any news on how Byte will improve on its previous iteration? Or is it still very much under wraps?

There are some limited benefits, like employment opportunities for motorcycle drivers...
