Title: Technology is making communication easier in today's world, but at the expense of personal contact as many people choose to work at home in front of a computer screen. What dangers are there for a society which depends on computer screens rather than face-to-face contact for its main means of communication.
Technology is making communicaton in easier, as it has developed quickly for last 10 years. Because of this, people want to live, have their work easier, that is why they want to work at home instead of going to their office in the morning, but this causes a lot of danger because technology is not safe enough, depends on who you are, and what company what you are working on, you can get a trouble.
I said the technology is not safe enough for the people because even though you have strong protection, someone is going to figure out, or hack the computer...etc. It is always possible. As technology developed, there are two different ways, one is for good work, one is for bad, which is like the government, or police against terrorists, or killers. If you are just a normal worker in this case, you should be fine, but if you are head of the government, police or th president, you shouldn't use the computer, or phone that much because people who hate you are going to figure out what is your plan, and ruin your plan. Also, if you did just one thing wrong, that could ruin your country by the bad people. For example, you always use your telephones, computer, people around you will say something as they say something, information might go to the bad people, which causes good situation for them, but not a good situation for the govenment people.
What is better if you communicate face to face? well, first of all, you would get less problem that using technology for every single day, which means that you are safe enough to work. Secondly, you can deal better. In my opinion, to get a deal, or have to cooperate. It is better to meat together and talk about it becuase you can see what the person is thinking just by looking at his face. Also even though bad guys want to hack you, they can't because you don't use technology, you are meeting the people face to face.
What if you have to use the technology every time, it kind of sounds wasteful, but you probably should change the car, computer, or phone by certain amount of days because people are able to figure out what they want, such things as record, or meeting plan. Second solution is, you should not trust all the people around you because some day they might turned in to the bad ways.
The technology that we are using is not always good for us, it can cause tons of troubles, if we think of these troubles, we should try to use technology lessly(usefully), to not make any mistakes, or trouble.

Daniel,
ReplyDeleteYou've shown some of the pros and cons of working at home. True, technology has allowed us to live a different lifestyle but, as you said, we sometimes have to wonder if it's all for the good. Last point: I wonder which side of the argument you stand for.
