Both.

Technology and computer control has enabled many breakthroughs in medicine and surgery that were impossible before. Computer controlled robotic surgery does modern miracles. Technology allows networking and collaborative work like never before. The ability to store and access data is fantastic

But, computers and cyber interaction can be a substitute for real life relationships. ISP's and search engines increasingly have become privacy concerns tracking our actions and laws have not kept pace with new threats. Coming into 250 email in the morning is not fun at work especially when most have little relevance to your job but result from people copying to all to cover their butts.

On a personal note i hate computer communication. I have cards and letters I would cherish and keep life time but I have never had an email or text message I felt that way about

computers made the world more difficult.

i can be in ma home and masturbate with the aid of a modem and the evil sites existing. i can hack n steal money from banks with the aid of computers. i can run the whole economy of the USA down just by being a good hacker. There are problems that are better left the way they were but, computers pose to be able to solve those problems and as a result created more problems.

Bottom line is the level of negativities that computers makes r more than the positivities.

so i think it is creat'n more problems than it solves.

In design, the computer is actually a very handy aid. But in reality, the excessive insecurities of people has caused it to be a showcase of the worst in humans. Case in point; the fact that advertising has permeated into every crack on the internet. Is that our idea of free enterprise...that no one can be free from it...and must endure it constantly instead of being able to escape it, even for a little while? It's become a fast and invasive monster; not an electronic savior of all our troubles. We have to take that which helps us...and leave the rest(80% of it) that looks to steal not only our wallets, but our humanity as well. We can abuse anything; we are so diverse, aren't we?

they have made a royal mess of it - too many prohibitions, too many rules, too many rules - making the homestead place of work basically wreck down with the stress and pointless trouble of it. they have basically taxed and spent and now the money is all long gone and the country gets progressively extra uncompetitive. residing expenses have long gone in the process the roof - as they stealth taxed their way via to offset their wasteful and lavish spending. they have had a whale of a time spending our money on all of their daft schemes! lots for our pension device - it was between the terrific - Gordon Brown has been off with the pensioners money inspite of the undeniable fact that. it is wonderful for them inspite of the undeniable fact that and the persons whose votes they offered with public sector jobs and pensions that are basically bankrolled via the state! In different words the unfunded liabilities that they have got created which would be a burden on the state for the subsequent 50 years!

Personally speaking, I thought life was better in the 70's and 80's before the internet. You didn't have to be tethered to a stupid cell phone, and resumes didn't have to get filtered through some idiot recruiter who doesn't know crap about the jobs they're recruiting for. I miss those days.
