humankind.

This

essay discusses both views.

However

, I think that

technology

will be advantageous as long as we

control

it, and not let it

control

us.

To begin

with,

technology

has dramatically shaped the way people live, and it is constantly making our life easier. Quite often, tech developers announce innovative tech gadgets that are easy to use, handy, innovative, and life-saving. These devices improve people's lives significantly and we have a better lifestyle today than

past due to the improvements and innovations in

technology

For instance

, mobile phones have been improved noticeably in terms of performance and usefulness. Nowadays, they are being used in every aspect of life including paying bills, making contacts, taking notes, surfing the internet and for many other practical purposes. The modern world is indeed defined by modern technologies.

On the other hand

technology

does not come without negative consequences. It has already started controlling many of our daily life aspects and can get more catastrophic than anyone could even imagine if it gets out of

control

For example

, everybody is using cellular devices these days, so they store their personal photos, contact details and even files on their phones.

Thus

, it is pretty easy for hackers to hack into someone's phone and misuse them. Online transaction fraud, malicious virus and trojans, health hazard, lack of personal and social bonding are

thus

attributed to our inclination towards

technology

. We are meant to

control

the

technology

, not being controlled by it. In conclusion, even though

technology

has its disadvantages, it is undeniable that not everything that the human creates is flawless.

Furthermore

technology

can be very handy if it is used properly and under enough precaution. So, we should be in

control

technology

, not let it

control

us.
