Interestingly there is no mention of semantics or what does actually "TV watching" mean. I have friends who self admittedly don't "watch TV" but they watch every single hyped up Netflix series available. Are they watching TV? By this study they probably not. Are they watching TV? I'd say most likely yes, they also use the device called TV to watch Netflix | ||||||||

Netflix is TV for the modern era, I don’t know who they think they’re kidding. It’s like the slogan, “it’s not TV. It’s HBO.” I haven’t had home television service for nearly 20 years, but I watch my TV constantly. It’s the same thing with a different delivery mechanism. | ||||||||

Maybe no, as they don't watch ads that are so pervasive in classic TV? Just kidding. | ||||||||

>Participants were asked how frequently, on a scale ranging from “never/seldom” to “very often,” they watched television during their leisure time and how much of their workday they spent sitting. | ||||||||

I’d even say that YouTube autoplay is “watching TV” | ||||||||
