Negative Effects Of The Kill Switch

In today’s world, many people believe that technology’s sole purpose is to draw young people away from the real world and reality. Just because you do not realize it, it does not mean it is not happening. If you think back to when you were younger, was technology the same as today? However, technology is forever changing and improving. It affects everyone, not just the young group of people. Technology changes our brains, souls, and our very being. Once technology sucks you into the whole of its essence, you will have a hard time changing your life style.

We as people rely on technology too much by expecting the machine to do something by the click of a button and get angry when the machinery isn’t working. At the beginning technology wasn’t thought of too much but at this point technology is getting people addicted from kids to the elderly.

The FBI, a institution that violates the privacy the public in thousands of ways is trying to have another way to do it, only this time, it is reasonable. They want Apple to create a software to disable the wipe-out function when the security code is entered incorrectly 10 times. This will help the FBI access information that could be very important about serious events such as terrorist attacks, murders, etcetera . It has been brought up recently because the San Bernardino shooters phone is in the possession of the FBI and it could have information about who else was involved, or have information on future attacks. Apple does not want to do this, they believe it is an invasion of privacy, but the creation of the software is essential in the case, and will help with many other cases in the future.

Technology can be a great thing, or a bad thing. For example, an atomic bomb would be good for the people dropping it, but as for the receiving end, let’s just say they aren’t having their best day. Also, a hacking app would be good for the user, because they could get a lot of free stuff, but the places they are hacking will probably lose money. Ray Bradbury wrote “There Will Come Soft Rains,” and he has a chilling vision of what technology will be in the future.

Greenemeier starts by addressing, the cost of Facebook, Google, Microsoft, and other Internet company’s by the exchange of information for advertising revenue. Most internet users generally accept this trade-off of private data, which is when one clicks they agree to the terms and conditions. He says the dark side of bartering personal data, is that the internet user has no way to track who has control of their information. When visiting sites such as clothing and shoe stores, the data is read that one maybe interested in such stores. If one was to close the browser containing the store catalog, the next social media and/or website will have advertising specific to what one researched at the previous store. This information collection allows for easier ad revenue for the producers, because each click on the ads allows for a small percent of profits from the website that one had come from. Greenemeier also talks about five ways one can protect them from information

In today's society there is no escape from technology. We are completely submerged in our iPhone, ipads, computers, and gaming systems. These gadgets give us the opportunity to be connected to each other and the rest of the world at all times. But, this is not a glorious step in history. Technology blinds us from the real world. As John Tudor said, “Technology makes it possible for people to gain control over everything, except technology.” We may run our lives with the help of our iPhones and computers, but do these forms of technology in turn control us? At first glance these new advances are greater steps to making our lives easier. But, when examined closely a large portion of technology is the cause of many problems in our society.

Technology is very odd because it allows users to have access to a vast amount of knowledge, but it can isolate and disconnect them from the real world. People are surrounded by technology as soon as they wake from their alarm clock to staring at their phone when they go to bed. It seems no matter where you go, everyone has some sort of electronic device on them. Over the past decade, technology has been rapidly evolving to help the advancement of society. Consequently, this creates an urge in people to join the ‘band wagon’ in owning their own piece of technology.

Nothing in life is really free. Even the web, including Facebook, Yahoo, Google, and free games like Angry Birds all have a high price, and that price is the user’s secrets. In the article “Web Users Get as Much as They Give” by Jim Harper, he tries to manipulate the reader into believing their secrets are a fair trade. He uses poor reasoning and threat tactics in trying to convince users that their personal information is a fair trade for the “free” content that they receive .Throughout the article logical fallacies are found such as either or reasoning and false analogies.

The biggest misconception about the internet is that it is free. The truth is the services the internet provides isn’t free at all; you pay for them with your very identity. Take Facebook for example. Every time you log onto Facebook, they monitor everything you do. The pages you like, the people you interact with, even the word you use in your status updates. Facebook then takes that information, analyzes it, and assembles a detailed profile of who you are. They know your habits, your preferences, your personality; they’re so good, they can even determine your risk tolerance and sexual orientation. This plethora of information is then sold to advertisers for profit.

We live in an age when many of us are always using technology. There are many devices that people use, such as smart phones, iPad, computers, game counsels, and many more. We use these devises for entertainment, communication, and work my mom uses technology for her work she is an assistant principle so she has to use a computer. My dad is a firefighter he needs technology for the people that call him when there is a fire. That is why adults need technology it is important for some jobs.

Technology is very essential in our everyday lives because it makes work and day-to-day activities easier. With technology, people can travel to different places and communicate with people that are not close by. Technology is used to help advance our daily lives. Having technology is a privilege but when you abuse the privilege you bring forth a dreadful outcome.

Technology and the rights that are written in the constitution is a privilege that people must not take advantage of in order for them to keep on having it for their life time. For those people who step out of that line that is draw and cause issue for others. Then society has every right to protect its self from those kind of induvial. Such as cause problems like potentially dangerous leaks that may force other in direct path of harm way or if people miss use them like Tools for communication, tools for oppression, or causing the Shutdown of communication in free countries.

People can use there technology when they have nothing to do but it just keeps you away from friend and family. Technology can really be helpful for when you are lost and don't know where you are at you can use technology to communicate to get to the place you need to be at. But technology distracts people but can also help people a lot in ways.

People argue that technology can be dangerous because Technology contains information that many would rather it not have. It influences minds in bad ways, and it allows people to share information, which they would otherwise not be able

Technology surrounds us. Like water in the ocean, people are swimming in technology each and every day. From the radio playing a favorite song to a text received about the results of a game, people use technology constantly. However, there is a point at which people are overtaken by technology; when the wave engulfs us and there is no way out. People are becoming more and more dependent on technology. Ever since technology began heavily integrating itself into society, many major uses have developed, but at a cost that brings on dangerous side effects, both mental and physical, as shown by the potential Y2K bug, that will continue unless active measures are sought out by those so dependent on technology.
