It's a drug digital technology that is addicting young people. It's a scary thing. One of the groups most susceptible to misinformation on the internet is parents who do not They talk a lot with their teenage children. It is this group that falls into stories like from “Momo”, “Blue Whale” and others. Now in 2023, a new story is circulating on the internet. He points to a alleged “digital drug” that would be “addicting young people” throughout Brazil. “I-Doser. Digital drug. now there's this digital dr0g4s, it's 4ssust4d0r check this out”, says a message accompanying a video. ## Is I-Doser the new digital drug that is addicting young people? The story spread again now in 2023 on social media. However, that alert increases “several points” and the story has already been denied in 2022 here. Remember what we wrote. _When reading the story, we immediately became suspicious. That's because she presents the main characteristics of fake news on the internet, such as vague, alarmist character, Portuguese errors and lack of sources trustworthy._ _Furthermore, false stories about supposed threats in society are not new here. The Boatos.org team has already denied many of them, such as which said that a young man had died after participating in a game challenge Blue Whale, in Brazil. Also the one that indicated that a drug called Strawberry Quickly it would be distributed in schools and, finally, the one that pointed out that a perfume test sheet would be a drug that would be distributed by robbers in Assaí._ _When searching for more information, we discovered that, in fact, the I-Doser exists. But it has nothing to do with what the story says. I-Doser is a computer that produces sound waves and seeks to intervene in brain waves of people. With this, the program aims to simulate the effect of various drugs and sensations._ _The program was created by audio and music psychology expert Nick Ashton and launched in 2005. According to the developer, the program uses the binaural wave technique. The technique is old and was first described time by the German physicist Heinrich Dove, in 1839._ _Despite being well known in the physical and medical field, the technique is not considered scientific knowledge. This is because all published studies on the topic showed inconclusive results. Furthermore, many doctors and scholars believe that the effects produced by the I-Doser actually are the result of the placebo effect, that is, of suggestion._ _In 2010, in the United States, a doctor and professor even carried out tests with people while using the I-Doser. The study with 4 people demonstrated that the computer program was unable to alter the brain waves of the young people. Still in 2010, the director of diagnostic audiology at the Hospital Infantil de Boston gave an interview where he stated that the technique of Binaural waves only cause a little confusion with the perception of sound. However, it is not capable of altering the real perceptions of the human body._ _Finally, we cannot call I-Doser a drug. In addition to the program not being listed, in Brazil, as a narcotic, the sounds are not capable of causing no drug-like effects. At most, the I-Doser can cause sensations, just like any music._ In short: the information that indicates that a drug called I-Doser is false is false. new threat to humanity. This is fake news that we debunked in 2022 and we had to recover it here. Ps.: This article is a suggestion from Boatos.org readers.
