The digital world is rapidly advancing. Instead of keeping up with the pace of technology, sometimes we are even unaware of the new terms and expressions that emerge. However, these terms and expressions are closely related to our bodies and souls within the realm of technology.

Doomscrolling is one of those terms. Sometimes, while using technological devices, we can blindly engage with them, unable to see the true source and purpose of the messages we receive. However, some of the content served by malicious individuals leaves deep scars in our minds, yet we remain unaware, much like the frog in an experiment, oblivious to its own demise.

Well, here's the story: a frog is thrown into boiling water. As soon as its legs touch the water, it gets burned and immediately jumps out. On the second attempt, the frog is placed in cold water. This time, it does nothing and continues to paddle and swim in the water. Then, the water slowly starts heating up. Despite the increasing temperature, the frog doesn't jump out of the water and eventually dies from extreme heat. This is exactly how today's social media and digital journalism operate. In this article, we will discuss the term 'Doomscrolling,' which is the Turkish equivalent of 'Felaket Kaydırması,' and the precautionary measures that can be taken against Doomscrolling.
