I agree that technology like all things has two sides to it. When used in moderation, it enhances our standard of living and has, no doubt, made our lives easier. The part about there being information that could have been used elsewhere is also something I agree on. Didn't know about wiki but if this is the case then the info should be checked against reliable sources.Letora wrote: ↑27 Dec 2019, 10:11 I think like anything, technology can be used for good or bad. I'd like to say people are smart enough not to use it for nefarious ways, but greed, ego, jealousy, etc. will never go away. I thought the interview was a lot of filler, and it contained information that could have easily been put in elsewhere. The information also seemed to come from wiki, which isn't the most reliable source.

I 100% agree with you about the wiki sourcing! A lot of the tech seemed to be exaggerated and too simple to use. It felt a bit similar to the crime shows where the hacker spends a few seconds typing and says "I'm in!"Letora wrote: ↑27 Dec 2019, 10:11 I think like anything, technology can be used for good or bad.

True, each technology has its flaws, being aware of the possible damages would help us to use them thoughtfully.lucia_kizas wrote: ↑27 Dec 2019, 11:13 There will always be somebody who uses one or another invention for wrong purposes, but that doesn't mean that technology as such is a bad thing. Without it, we would have no modern hospitals, fewer crimes would be solved, etc. The technology as such is not evil, the people who create and use it might be, though.
