The point of this podcast is to try and encourage once we diagnose the specific features of human psychology that are being exploited. And so it would access restricting access, cutting off. So there are best practices. What I'm saying, it's not a sea of like, we're not going to do anything because we don't know what to do.
In part two of our interview with cultural anthropologist Natasha Dow Schüll, author of Addiction by Design, we learn what gamblers are really after a lot of the time — it’s not money. And it’s the same thing we’re looking for when we mindlessly open up Facebook or Twitter. How can we design products so that we’re not taking advantage of these universal urges and vulnerabilities but using them to help us? Tristan, Aza and Natasha explore ways we could shift our thinking about making and using technology.
