A simple notification, and we reflexively check our smartphones — are we truly in control? My Bachelor thesis, "Addiction by Design", investigates how and why users are drawn into the world of smartphones and social media. This work examines the mechanisms, strategies, and design choices that tech companies use to capture and hold our attention. The book encourages critical thinking about our constant connectivity and the impact of information overload on our lives, ultimately seeking to discover whether a healthier balance between connection and control can be achieved.
