Careful experiments show that the often-repeated blue light keeps you awake claim is not a correlation.
I’m not surprised. Blaming the physical characteristics of the technology is an INTENTIONAL DISPLACEMENT. It’s a frame-up.
McLuhan misunderstood television in a similar way. He thought the dots in the picture caused TV to be “cool” in his jargon, which meant that TV invited you to use your own imagination. He also thought books and radio were “hot”, forcing the author’s viewpoint into your head.
PRECISELY BACKWARDS. The dots and the ink have NOTHING to do with the difference. TV naturally has more power to control your mind because it’s entering two senses at once. Books use only vision, radio uses only hearing. But the tech itself is only part of the distinction. Broadcasters developed a massive array of specialized tricks to phase-lock your mind. Neal Postman and Jerry Mander described the methods accurately.
Smartphones keep you awake and agitated because the monsters who control the algorithms INTEND to keep you awake and agitated. The same thing would happen with any form of screen and any color of light, as the above experiment proved.
