Technology! Is it Too Much For Us?

People want technology to do the things they can’t or don’t want to do for themselves. Many of them don’t want to do the thinking or the work, so they use the device to do it for them.Psychologists in Canada (The Telegraph) made tests to see how much people use their phones. People that don’t like to do the thinking for themselves are more likely to use technology that is given to them. Smartphones are the most used technology in the world.Researchers think the more access they have to a gadget the more it will make people want to look at it for help. Technology makes people less independent. Computers in Human Behavior think people are less likely to take part in finding things on their own because electronics are something they rely on too much. People think this way is faster and better.

Over 2 billion phones were bought and used since 2016. A lot of people think that number is gong to go up to over 2.50 billion. China produces most of our technology. China has over 500 million smartphone users and that number is estimated to go up to 700 million by 2018 says the researchers at The Telegraph.Our technology this generation is totally different from 30 years ago. Making new technology is crucial to keep up with people.

Why do we use technology so much? Is it because we’ve used it for so long that we can’t live without it? Or maybe is it because we get bored of our hobbies and activities then we become addicted to the devices? Whatever the reason is many people find this unhealthy. Although many of us use it for communicating to family. They still want to be in touch with their family.
