The document proposes a social funding program to help people overcome phone addiction. It outlines signs of phone addiction and describes a crowdfunding model where an addict's friends would fundraise a goal to incentivize the addict to limit phone use for 30-60 days using a monitoring app. If the addict complies, the money is kept by the program; otherwise it is returned. The program would keep 10-20% of funds for website maintenance and use the model to raise addiction awareness and money for charities.
