Yes I agree that it is addictive, and will be subject to this NY state law.
When I think of "forum" I think of pre-Web 2.0/social media like PHP BB. I don't think they would be categorized the same way.

That's what I meant too. PHPBB forums and the like had plenty of features that would be considered "addictive" in the modern climate, as well as "algorithmic" feeds.
They certainly could be categorized the same way. I don't think they will only because the political will isn't there and such forums aren't popular enough to matter. But if regulation of social media causes those forums to resurge in popularity then that might change.
