I'd like to think I am a responsible user of cybernetic loops, having some understanding of how and why they occur. I am aware that I am being tracked and sold but as I said I find the conversations on Twitter to be so interesting and useful I consider this a price well paid. HN doesn't seems to be helping the planet. I don't think you could consider me to be addicted to Twitter because I use it less than an hour a day, although I reflexively check it sometimes.
