Lesson 2: Technology Boon or Bane?

Technology is necessary but not always a positive influence in modern life. This issue has especially come into vogue in the last decade due to the mind-boggling pace of technology. Whatever be it whether an advantage or disadvantage all comes in feature according to its usage in the daily life. It has made our lives easier to the extent that repetitive and monotonous tasks need not be performed manually.

It has immensely helped us to achieve our targets. In the past there were no medicines or technology that was helping us to know about our health such as Neuro, gastro and cardio many more. But if we check the present scenario we have achieved a lot. We used to wash our cloths manually by doing lot of struggle to vanish the stains on those cloths. But now the washing machine is helping us to do things in a flexible manner. If we leave all this and think of the great technology that has helped human era is Computers and Internet. It has changed the lifestyles completely. Sitting at one place we can gather a lot of information whatever is required.

Going through Google we can get any information under the umbrella of earth. This is what a real technology helps us to achieve. Starting from education to the sports segment, technology is really helped us to think of something out of box and implement. Hence if we see all these, we may conclude that the technology is really a boon for us.

But on the other hand it may be a bane too. How we are using it is makes technology as a bane. Internet is used to gather information and knowledge. But if the same thing is used to learn bad things is really bane for the human kind. For Ex: If a 7-9 year kid is collecting information for his education then internet is really helpful whereas if he is using it for pornographic pictures then it is really a matter of concern for us. Mobile phones are there to have a message pass on over voice or text, but if it is used as a device for other bad things is really a problem for us. Apart from these the mobile camera is being used for different purposes under the bad strategies. If we speak a lot over phone then there are lots of health hazards for us. Hence technology also provides us the bad path to run. 

Hence Internet and Mobile revolution has changed the world completely. It may be a good or bad. But end of the day Technology has given us the boon as well as bane too.
