EU call to ban addictive techniques like endless scrolling

It also states: "Moving from attention economy to ethical design"

That could mean the engagement should not be used as metric at all, but lets see, for now it is just a plenary session.

It seems fairly obvious that some companies cannot regulate themselves properly and then lawmakers step in.

I don't get the reasoning here either, but I would be down with banning endless scrolling because it has so much more disadvantages.

I don't mind it for entertainment, but for any technical data it just is a stupid idea. The usability is worse too aside maybe the most trivial mobile valium scrolling.

>The engagement metriques will not change even slightly if we are going to perform a bit more movements to keep scrolling.

I bet they will.
