We live today in an electronic information age. It is easier to be connected by technology, yet many people seem to no closer to feeling happy in their lives. To what extend do you agree or disagree?

Unarguably, the advancement of

technology

has revolutionized communication and pushed the world to more of a “

borderless

” front.

However

, despite the many perks that come with the electronic age, the disadvantages are

forthcoming. I will expound on these two tenets and

lastly

conclude with a personal opinion.

To begin

with, the merits of

technology

are innumerable. Currently, it has become easier and faster to access a wide variety of information

a fast- hand basis.

This

has greatly impacted the

experience of students and teachers as well. While in the past, they would have scavenged through a pile of books. In fostering personal relations, the speed at which people can communicate with each other despite distances has

also

increased.

For example

such

as zoom, google meets, Microsoft teams and so forth has proved cost effective

the current unprecedented times under the corona pandemic.

However

, and

in contrast

, there`s a flip side to

technology

. In terms of personal relations, while the main intent was to bring people closer, the opposite seems to be apparent. There has been great research that

technology

seems to be negatively impacting personal relations as people do not often relay their true feelings or character, a sort of “hiding behind the keyboard.”

Additionally

, with the advent of social media, there has been a rise in hate crimes and

cyberbullying

. In business, bank accounts have been subjected to hacks and sensitive information leaked to the public. In conclusion, the world as is currently

being

, is continually going to continue

advancing

in the technological front. While it is apparent that great disadvantages are erupting, it seems inevitable and sort of a price to pay for the world to reap benefits.

Nonetheless

, in my opinion, not all is lost, and it is now the role of governments to self-regulate and come up with measures that specifically address these emerging issues.
