More like we are being taken adavantage of by distractions on screens that pretend to help, but actually are designed to eat our time and attention. It is an absolute cancer to the human ability to focus, and it is even worse if you have a disorder that makes focusing hard in the first place. It’s almost like giving a blind person a picture book about blindness and then act shocked when the blind person can’t read/see it. Maybe a lame comparison, because at least a picture book isn’t preying on the blind person’s handicap like a focus app is preying on a person with ADHD.
This is because traditionally the brain is used to focus, but now humans are being trained to outsource thinking for convenience sake.
