Give me a break. No one says “I can’t live without Instagram” literally. There are even studies that show that it makes their users depressed. From inside the company that _makes the product_.

Now, would it be inconvenient to stop, sure, but people need better self control. Put that cookie down!

That's a straw man argument. I never said they were.

What percentage of the population do you think are in the habit of reading academic studies about the effects of the products they use?

It all feels reminiscent of cigarette smoking. The damage was very well known yet people continued to do it. It took extensive government regulation to wean people off their addiction, not a "buck up, chump" motivational message.
