Communication technology

Looking back in the 1990's it was very difficult to communicate to one another. Back about 75% of families uses black and white television. Communication was very difficult, it was letter and mails that were available then. For instance you want to send a message to your fiend in a far country, you'll have to write down a letter and clearly write the address of the recipient, if the receiver is outside the country, you'll have to include the destination county's name.

In brief, the word ''computer'' means a person or something who computes. The question is, is it possible to live without a computer? The answer is yes, but life will be very difficult for you trust me. Computers have a dramatic impact on the way we work and think. Before the invention of computer, people do calculations locally by using their hands and paper. Presently, those descriptions have turned into SEO, IT support and data analyst. That's just epic!

Yes, technology can be very helpful, BUT, as I'm sure you well know it can also be used for evil. Privacy concerns seem to have gone completely out the window, for example it seems, and that really bothers me.

Also, you have blatant misuses such as NSA spying, military hardware, criminal enterprises, identity theft, "smart" everything, Alexa-like spying devices, etc.

Then there is also the aspect of technology which keeps kids inside on video games or texting when they should be outside MOVING.

Everything has two sides. Everything can be used for good, or for evil.

Technology has tremendous power, and as some (like Elon Musk) have warned it, we need to do more to insure that it doesn't eventually enslave us more than it helps us.

So true . increasingly sophisticated technology is also widely used for crime. has many such events have occurred in the world but we can also take advantage of the technology now.
because with today's technology everyone can interact with each other more easily and connect well with outsiders. as we use today. with the internet we can communicate and exchange opinions.

A nice read, but maybe you should write something about the dangers of technology. People need to understand that with new possibilites come new problems and new risks, the best way to minimize them is to be concious about them.

super sekali penjelasannya mas @yandot, followed dah

Technology has done wonders and it's continuing to do wonders. I feel there is an urgent need for technology now to be used to advocate environmentalism because I feel in as much as its good, it has helped to disconnect us from the natural world and its environmental impacts are almost never talked about. This explains why I think its time for technology to focus on the environment and try to engage people to connect with nature or else we risk watching how we will die of hunger, diseases, climate change, etc using technology and not being able to eat technology.
I use technology to advocate for environmental action coz I believe the two must work together. Check out our textile upcycling project https://steemit.com/ecotrain/@thegreens/zero-waste-project-ecodesigns-nurtures-young-girls-to-transfrom-textile-trash-to-treasure
