Computer technology: is it good or bad?

The 21st century has been the era of so many technological breakthroughs and breakthroughs, technologies that are meant for one purpose and that is to improve people’s lives by helping them to be more efficient in their work. One such technological advancement is computer technology.

Computer technology has grown to enormous proportions, from a room-sized computer to a small, well-designed handheld computer. Computers today have become an indispensable part of people’s lives, especially at work, in companies, businesses, schools, offices and even in homes.

It has made the world smaller, but has it made our world better? So it would lead us to ask if computer technology is good or bad. Now let’s try to look at some of the negative effects first. With the advent of computers and the internet it has become easy to access pornographic sites, children are more exposed to explicit content; some students would lose focus on their studies while playing computer games. The number of cases of obesity has increased and it has been attributed to too much computer activity that led to less physical activity among several people.

On the other side of the coin, computers have opened up a whole new world of possibilities. Now it’s easier to get information about world events; you can even find work on the internet; you can spread advocates to a large number of people around the world; And most importantly, it’s now easier to stay connected to each other, even if you’re on the other side of the world.

Computer technology, like every other material on earth, has been created with the common good in mind. Just like a knife, it is designed to cut and slice food to speed up people’s cooking time, but it can also be used to kill people, and the use of knives to stop killing cannot be prohibited. Therefore, computers cannot be blamed for the problems they may have caused, since it is the people who use them that caused the problem. It has disadvantages and advantages that must be taken into account.

But the problem is not the information technology itself; the problem lies with the people who use it. Computer technology is generally good because it can bring a lot of good if used correctly, but it can cause a lot of harm if used incorrectly.

People have choices about how they make use of the earth’s resources, and that choice will determine how certain materials will affect people, for better or worse.
