To get answers,

Let’s read what I wrote for you!

dominate!

I don’t think technology can dominate humans! Because humans are smarter than technology. If someone says that, that will sound funny. Here are some examples I’m giving you below with proof,

Social Media(web-based technology):

Google, you are using it. You are learning a lot of things from here. You created a group for study. Then, in this case you are using it for a good reason. Remember, through this type of social media you forget your paper, pen, and hard books.

Already, Google, YouTube, Facebook, WhatsApp, Messenger, WeChat, Instagram, QQ, Tumblr, Qzone, TikTok, Twitter, Reddit, Baidu Tieba, LinkedIn, Viber, Snapchat, Pinterest, Line, Telegram, Medium all these technologies are dominating you and everything.

Of course, you are learning from a huge platform. You read in these platforms you learn, you watch in these platforms you learn, you write in these platforms you learn. It is an easy, great and awesome opportunity for the whole world.

On the other hand,

Facebook, you are using it. Not just you, it has 2.23 billion monthly users! You are using it 5/7 hours in a day or more than this. What do you actually gather from this social media?

If you ask yourself, the answer will come in this form of “NOTHING”. You are just scrolling and literally, you are wasting your time. You are reading jokes, reacting to others posts, watching funny videos etcetera.

You can’t even imagine at this stage that technology is dominating you 100%. You actually don’t know why you are scrolling your Facebook feed, why you are reacting to others posts, why you share posts on Facebook.

YouTube, it has 1.9 billion users. I am sure you are one of them! Are you? Yes, you are. You are watching dramas, funny videos, films and a lot of things. What do you gain from watching YouTube? You gain “NOTHING”. However, you are wasting your time without any hesitation. You don’t even think about your time. It’s insane, you are not thinking for yourself. Then, who will do it?

Again, you can’t even imagine at this stage that technology is dominating you 100%.

Like, Facebook and YouTube there are a lot of web-based technology those are WhatsApp, Messenger, WeChat, Instagram, QQ, Tumblr, Qzone, TikTok, Twitter, Reddit, Baidu Tieba, LinkedIn, Viber, Snapchat, Pinterest, Line, Telegram, Medium. All are dominating you and you can’t imagine that!

Now, we all are using smartphones. It is an awesome technology. Nowadays, smartphones are very easy to carry, to buy, even to give gifts. These smartphones cover all of us.

If 5 friends are sitting around one table. What will happen nowadays? The 5 people will use their own mobile phone. It is happening in our society. In this case, here, mobile technology is dominating us.

For the time being, people are like to waste his/her time, money. People forget the real goal of life. It seems people are happy to be dominated by technology! It sounds funny, because the technology was created by us but we can’t control the technology right in this era.

Technology in Everyday Life:

Humans take breaths every second. In this way, technology is deeply involved in human life.

In this world, everyone is a student. Every student has smartphones, laptop, desktop etcetera. Anyone if want to know anything they directly go to the GOOGLE and search the question.

Such as, What is the best 10 ten Google app? What is the Google product URL? What is a UX writer? There are billions of people in GOOGLE or in technology who ask and learn. For their study, students are using google sheets, google docs, google slides, google forms.

Even official people use all of this technology for their records. Everyone is under control of technology. No one can regret it, a single person.

In your house, you have a water heater, washing machine, microoven, electric cleaner, rice cooker, fridge, etcetera. What are all of these? These are not just a water heater, washing machine, microoven, electric cleaner, rice cooker, fridge. These are actually “TECHNOLOGY”. These technologies are literally dominating us but we are happy. Because these are easy to use, easy to work.

However, the very important part of life is that you need to be a healthy person over all of this.

But, How will you do that?

You want your hands strong but you have a washing machine. So, your hands are not working anymore. The washing machine is.

You are not eating fresh food. Because you have a fridge.

How will you do that?

So, in the last line, I can write a series for the “TECHNOLOGY” who are actually dominating us, ruling us.
