In reflection to what many people from Y101Fm said, I can conclude that what technology gave us is an effect of 50-50 meaning half of it is good and half of it is bad.

On the good side: Well it is pretty obvious. Not only that technology made things a lot easier and quicker, many people have evolved to be smarter too! This is because of information being available in just one click. People have developed a wider understanding towards things and that knowledge is accessible given that you know which information is legit and which is not.

On the bad side: Attitudes have changed and people have become dependent. Gone are the days where we can live without electricity for a day. I can compare that fact to how we die when the internet is gone for half a day. It seems like a disaster to us. If good things are evolving with technology, bad things are too. Criminals are a lot smarter! We are also polluting our environment with chemicals and using more animals for testing.

I personally think technology is great! Without technology, we would not be as advanced as we are now. If we use it the right way, there would be no bad side to this.
