The 21th century has been characterized by the development of technology with cellphones, televisions and cameras. Nowadays, we all use these electronic devices for many different thing and by now is impossible to live without them. People often have the suspect of being monitored while they use the technology, is it true? Is it just a unfounded hypothesis? How many times happens that you need something at the moment and then you see, on TikTok or
Instagram, an advertisement that advises you to buy that thing that you were searching for? Normally people think that is connected to your last research on the Web, but anyway is really creepy. Just thinking that I could not have neither a little of privacy scares me.
There are also some advantages about these monitoring. Nowadays all the cities in the world are full of security cameras that can be useful to find missed people and in general to preserve our safety. Badly as a medal also the security cameras are two-faced, there are people in the world that use them to stalk and spy some poor souls that maybe ain’t did nothing bad. There had been many cases of followed and persecuted people from a monitor, and unluckily I never heard neither one with an happy ending.
The technology is born to help us and to make our life easily. The monitoring of people through monitors is just one of the many cons of using electronic devices… can we say that this will be the cause of our extinction? Absolutely not, because the only reason why there are these
problems with technology is that we human beings are not able to use it already
