To be perfectly honest, I spend several hours a day on the internet mainly because I need to be constantly plugged in to cover up to date information for both my work and studies. As far as I can remember, I’ve been using the internet since I was in the 4th grade. Back then our band wasn’t that great, but I still loved it to serve the web after school. If that were the case, I would probably just go outside with my friends or spend quality time with my family without an online platform to distract me. I’d definitely pay more attention to the real world. To be frank, I’m quite addicted to the internet mainly because I handled the Leon’s share of my daily routines online. It’s just so user friendly that I often find myself scrolling endlessly. Broadly speaking, I’ve noticed that people of all ages was a huge chunk of their free time on the net. For many, it’s not just a tool, but an addictive environment where they consume viral content.
