Kill the Scroll: YouTube’s "0-Minute" Hack & the $6M Verdict Against Meta
Is the era of endless "doomscrolling" finally ending? In today’s episode, we break down the major shift in digital control as of April 16, 2026. We start with YouTube’s quiet but massive update: a new "0-minute" daily limit that effectively removes Shorts from your feed, helping you reclaim your attention span.
We also explore Spotify’s new universal video toggles, allowing you to strip away Canvas, music videos, and video podcasts for a pure audio experience. But the biggest story is the landmark $6 million verdict in Los Angeles, where a jury found Meta and YouTube liable for negligent platform design and child addiction. Is this the "Big Tobacco moment" for Big Tech? Join us as we discuss how "defective design" is bypassing Section 230 and what this means for the future of your favorite apps.
