Some believe technology has made our lives too complex and the solution is to lead a simpler life without technology. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

A number of individuals say that
over dependence

on
technology
has made our
lives
complicated and the answer to
this
issue is to abandon the
technology
and lead a simple
life
. I majorly disagree with
this
approach as it would not be a practical solution to
this
issue. Presently, almost every person is handcuffed to
technology
in one or another way. A temporary loss of the internet connection,
for instance
, makes these
people
helpless which ultimately makes them frustrated and anxious. If these

alternatives (
such
as socialising with
people
or doing a hobby),
then
it will be less troubling for them.
Thus
, it is not the
technology
that makes our
life
complex, it is the overuse of it.
Therefore
, restricting

usage can help
people
in many ways. Another point I would like to add is that it would be nearly impossible to completely abandon
technology
in today's world as willingly or unwillingly, the person will have to use
technology
in order to keep up with
this
world.
In other words
, some
people
may argue that just like
the

past if

,
life
will be

and easy.
However
, I can say that
people
have made themselves so habituated
with

technology
that even if they want to stop using it, they would not be able to.
For instance
, if the person decides to not touch

, it will not be practically possible as

. In conclusion, it can be said that it is not
technology
that has made our
lives
complex, it is
over dependence

on
technology
that has created
this
mess.
Therefore
, abandoning the usage of machines is not going to help us, rather limiting the use will be fruitful. After all
technology
's purpose is to complement our
lives
, not to run our
lives
.
