NEW TECHNOLOGIES. (WHATSAPP)

The problem that I will explain now is: the power of technologies to separate people. I mean, nowadays wherever we go, our Smartphone are. We have a really big dependence of Whatsapp, Twitter, Facebook etc. Polls say us that it's because of the social integration. The human race needs to be accepted. In fact, in the pyramid of needs (economic theory of Maslow) the love and belongnig have the third place. But, are new technologies improving our relationships? Or is it separating us bit by bit?

The first solution that I chose is the next one: less whatsapp and more speaking to each other directly. That's my opinion as from my experience the most of people acts very different by whatsapp that face to face.

What is the problem against my solution? It's very simple. Whatsapp makes our life easier. The speed of new technologies are perfect when you have a important question or if you want to date with a friend. Furthermore, new technologies allow you to be in touch with people who are in the other side of the world.

 

From my view point, reducing Apple, Samsung, Huawei's publicity could be another solution. Humans (especially teenagers) are so influenced. Every day we are seeing adverts which incite us to buy new mobile phones or tablets.

However, there is a problem: the big international business will never stop their publicity, because their only one preoccupation is earn much and much money. That's like big pharma which have the cure to a lot of illness but put it really high prices while there are a lot of people dying because of this diseases. People are very selfish and unfair.

 

Concluding, we have to stop this "computerization of the soul". As far as I am concerned social webs are separating people more and more, it's better call someone than send a sms. Is a whatsapp better than a conversation in a pub? Or is a icon better than a hug? I don't think so. We have to stop this because we can't allow that technologies dominate us. People have to take the control of their life. Your life is your life and you have to enjoy every minute because it's awesome. I will try to use new technologies only because of a necessity.
