With the advancements in technology many task have been made easy. Now we don't have to drive to the groceries store or the mall to buy something you need because you can do it on your computer. You don't need to go to the library to check out a book, now you can just download it to your phone and you don't even have to go to school because you can take online classes. Alex Sanders mentions on his article that we don't even have to go out to find dates anymore because now you can find a a date online. All these advancements in technology are very helpful but its sad that now we practically don't have to leave our homes because we have everything we need on the tips of our fingers. But is this in any away safe?? Well it can be very harmful! Since you don't need to leave your home you don't get any type of exercise, putting you at risk of health problems. It is also very harmful for your eyes to stare at a computer screen for hours. So since most of the time we don't even have to use our brain much technology is also making us useless.
I'm not trying to say that technology is horrible but I feel that we shouldn't really on technology to do everything. We should not forget that our safety is at risk with the use of technology either through identity theft, social networks or just through the daily use of it.
