Yes- Technology brings about more problems than benefits

1. While technology has facilitated the ease, speed, and reach of social interactions, it has ironically created a sense of isolation and anxiety as well as compromised on the quality of our ‘offline’ relationships.
2. The idea here is that what we used to do out of pleasure is now done out of pressure (to stay connected to friends, to appear sociable, and to be updated about things happening as soon as possible) (Edinburgh Napier University: Facebook causes anxiety)
3. We are now controlled by technology in the way we are addicted to it – Facebook addiction rates have been increasing, as well as the cases showing the disastrous consequences of this addiction have been on the rise.

•  In South Korea alone, the government estimates the number of web addicts at about two million in a nation of almost 50 million.
•  19-year-old Danny Bowman’s selfie addiction spiralled out of control, spending ten hours a day taking up to 200 snaps of himself on his iPhone.
