I guess camillomiller is referring to how Facebook & Instagram played a big part in getting people addicted to shallow dopamine hits that consume their time at the cost of less time spent with friends and family face-to-face. Basically, hurting people's social lives in order to make money from ads. Kind of like "digital cigarettes" I suppose.

That, and all that can be traced back to Facebook, Instagram and social media’s impact on society. Not just the shallow dopamine issue, but also bigger problems such as facilitating genocide. I was a skeptic for a long time, but the more we see what Meta stands for, the more I believe Mark Zuckerberg’s companies have had anything but a massively negative impact on the world.
