A study shows any thing is addictive.

Is it possiable that its our fault for this problem?

Or is it the ones who create the sites fault?

I have asked this question to see what other people think.

I''ll snatch you bald-headed!

Accept responsibility for your own actions/inactions.  As long as you follow that credo you'll come up with the right answer.

It's sort of addictive I think. But not that addictive.

It just seems a way to relax a bit. Although ppl can spend hours online.

It's not build especially to be addictive unlike MMO imo.

People can be addicted to anything, i don't see why the internet would be a exception.

Boredom is in the temperament of the beholder.

Everything has the potential to be addictive. It is a matter of each person's own responsibility to negate that potential for themselves.

The internet is the most useful tool in the world.  You can do practically anything with it.  How can such a multi-purpose tool be considered addictive?

Are we now blaming one source for a problem that's far more complex and doesn't spawn from one single source? Personally I'd stick to the fact that nothing is simple and easy, especially not when it comes to finding the source behind something. If now the Internet is addictive then I believe that in order to get addicted to it there must be quite a lot of things that come together and creates this addiction. These things that come together aren't only from the sites creators nor from us ourselves.

PORN and the UNKNOWN are addicting, not the internet.
