Chuck Joiner, David Ginsburg, Ben Roethig, Eric Bolden, Marty Jencius, Jeff Gamet, Jim Rea, Web Bixby, and Brian Flanigan-Arthurs discuss the Surgeon General's proposal for social media warning labels and their potential impact on online behavior. The discussion gets personal as panel members talk about some of their own challenges and the difficulty of breaking habits. We also share an amusing example of why you really need to understand where your text messages are stored and how they sync.
