Show Notes

Former Surgeon General Jerome Adams warns of social medias addictive nature, likening it to cigarettes impact on youth. He cites evidence linking heavy use to mental health issues in young users and advocates for tough regulations. Recent court rulings against Meta and YouTube support his stance. Adams praises Australias ban on social media for under-sixteens and notes U.S. states debating classroom tech restrictions. As lawsuits mount, expect more states to curb unfettered screen time to protect young users from hidden harms.
