TToB: People in countries that adopted the internet faster are less happy overall. Tough or Bluff???

Tough

Itโ€™s BLUFF! Researchers analyzed data from the past 20 years, and from 168 countries with varying rates of internet adoption. They found no significant correlation between internet use and well-being or mental illness. Having said that, some individuals who increase their internet use may experience changes in happiness and mental health. However, overall, it seems that internet adoption doesnโ€™t affect the overall happiness or mental health of a society. This contradicts the common wisdom that the internet is psychologically corrosive. (10.1177/21677026231207791)
