Wired Americans spend nearly half their day online — splitting that time almost evenly between watching videos or TV shows and working, browsing and shopping, according to a new survey.
“This new survey was eye-opening,” said Eric Bruno, senior vice president of product management for Optimum, whose telecommunications firm interviewed 2,000 US residents who have a home Internet subscription with any company for the poll.
“We were amazed to see how many hours folks are watching, shopping and browsing online on a daily basis,” Bruno told The Post.
“It underscores how important a strong, affordable, and reliable Internet has become in today’s world.”
On average, screen-zombie Americans spend more than 10 hours daily accessing the Web.
They spend 5.4 of those hours browsing, working, gaming, looking at social media, reading email or paying bills, the survey found.
They spend another five hours streaming video or TV content.
