What do you think?

uh
you can become addicted to anything
if it provides pleasure to you aka triggers dopamine to be released in your brain
but porn is rather a medium for stimulation which therefore encourages masturbation
so you're not really addicted to porn, you're just addicted to masturbation
but at the same time, you can be addicted to pornography, which can make you think of unrealistic expectations for sex and partners, which can mess up your social skills

What about people who can't climax unless they view porn, and like, a specific type too?

That seems to fit the proper definition of "fetish" then.

Your point is right @Minty but if a person only gets aroused by porn? Would that be considered addition?

Dammit my point was addressed already!

Addiction to pornography is a psychological condition, it develops as long as you spend quite some time watching porn of the sorts out there, and since it is a condition that stimulates the human hormones, you can be easily addicted to it just like you're easily affected by the Nicotine.
Once you're addicted, beating the bishop should become something banal to you.

Oh I'm sure that there are people who are completely unhealthily addicted to jerking it to the stuff- like, not being able to function in everyday life because of it. The problem is, there's basically a cottage industry that's formed around a non-existent "epidemic", and unsurprisingly, the people who stand to benefit from it are trying establish a much lower standard for what qualifies.
Remember: "strong enjoyment" ≠ "addiction"
