I remeber reading about internet addiction in The Onion a few years back. Like everything else Internet addiction it was meant to be a joke (I remember there was an article about someone suing McDonald's for making them fat there too), yet has somehow come true.

I didn't read the story just now because I read it a day or so ago (and forgot most of it). Has internet addiction reached an epidemic level yet? Were taxes suggested to combat it?

Oh, I just remembered something. Rehab for 6 months(?) and something like it'll be a life long struggle even with rehab.
