Using technology (Opinion essay practice: something most people agree but you do not [corrected one])

Nowadays it is very usual to see people using their mobiles, laptops, cameras or other gadgets wherever they are. They do not care about if someone is talking to them or if they are in a place where these devices are forbidden.

First and foremost, using technological devices is not always wrong. As everything; it has advantages and disadvantages and it is a controversial topic. Some people think that it is confortable to use them while others do not.

Among the advantages we can find online shopping, to forward messages from any place and taking pictures or recording videos with hand and phone cameras. Furthermore, it makes easier to be in contact with people from other countries.

Concerning about me, I am against about using all of these gadgets. A disadvantage of using them is that they can be dangerous. For instance, we are used to hearing cases where children (and not only children) enter to chat rooms to talk to people who turn out to be a kidnaper or a rapist.

In addition, some devices such as mobiles or laptops can be hacked. This means that the person who hacked onto it can access to all the documents and info that we have in the gadgets.

Another problem of using technology is that the people who do it, can be absorved by the device. I know cases where they have lost their friends because of abusing of technology.

To sum up, although most people agree with using gadgets, I am against that because, even though we do not realise it, we overuse them.
