Plenty of people struggle with the problem they&amp;#x27;re solving here. Especially at Google, where they a) think of themselves as a nice, mission-driven company, and b) they do a lot of user-focused stuff that doesn&amp;#x27;t immediately contribute to quarterly revenue, and c) they have a workforce that can easily switch jobs, there&amp;#x27;s plenty of reason to think that they&amp;#x27;re sincere here.&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#x27;s surely true that execs looked at this and made sure the ROI wasn&amp;#x27;t blatantly large and negative. And there&amp;#x27;s definitely another level of analysis where a lot of good behavior turns out to be useful to the organism, in the same sense that moms love kids because genes need new meat-robot bodies to run around in. But that complimentary to your frame of analysis, not contradictory to it.</text><parent_chain><item><author>eutectic</author><text>Corporation&amp;#x27;s are made of people and people don&amp;#x27;t only have the direct interests of the company in mind.&lt;p&gt;I don&amp;#x27;t understand the commenters responding negativepy to these proposals; by all means be circumspect, but don&amp;#x27;t criticize a company for making a positive change just because you think it doesn&amp;#x27;t go far enough.</text></item></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Google&apos;s Plan to Make Tech Less Addictive</title><url>https://www.fastcodesign.com/90171307/googles-plan-to-make-tech-less-addictive</url></story>

It encourages half measure and ineffective solutions.</text><parent_chain><item><author>eutectic</author><text>Corporation&amp;#x27;s are made of people and people don&amp;#x27;t only have the direct interests of the company in mind.&lt;p&gt;I don&amp;#x27;t understand the commenters responding negativepy to these proposals; by all means be circumspect, but don&amp;#x27;t criticize a company for making a positive change just because you think it doesn&amp;#x27;t go far enough.</text></item></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Google&apos;s Plan to Make Tech Less Addictive</title><url>https://www.fastcodesign.com/90171307/googles-plan-to-make-tech-less-addictive</url></story>
