Internet addiction

An excessive amount of time spent on Internet activities, such as reading blogs, visiting social networking sites, shopping, stock trading, watching porn, playing games and gambling. To be diagnosed with an "Internet addiction disorder" (IAD), the time on the Internet must be detrimental to the person's daily routine. There is controversy about whether Internet addictions are truly unique or are just an online version of the same addictions people have offline. Many believe that the Internet's easy access makes more people addictive.
