Just turn it off. That's the message a lot of Chinese users of WeChat are sending about the constant stream of updates from their contacts - updates that they say are addictive and which they feel they are compelled to read.
China Youth Daily conducted a survey of 2,000 people regarding their use of WeChat. Surprisingly, 35.8 percent of respondents say they want to turn their WeChat updates off.
Nearly 20 percent say they probably will turn off the updates in the near future. About 14 percent have done so in the past.
