Guys, I really think it was dismissive instead of incredulous. The question was asking about the writer’s attitude towards people who said they spend a lot of time on emails. The passage did not indicate that she does not BELIEVE people spend a lot of time on emails, only that she DOESN’T CARE whether they spend a lot of time on emails or not because experts think the Internet isn’t changing anything whatsoever. And that’s dismissive.
