During a day how many modern conveniences does a regular person use? During the morning some would use a blender, toaster, coffee maker, stove, etc. Then comes the evening the dishwasher is used, the laundry machine and dryer, the microwave to heat lunch, etc. Everyday people rely heavily on these appliances unconscious of it; then come the greater evil: technology. On average a person spends up to 3.9 years of their life staring at a phone screen; some people can't find their way around without their GPS, can't communicate with others, inform themselves, etc.
People are oblivious to their reliance and dependence on technology and appliances, and oversee their impact on their lives. Without such inventions our lives would be entirely different; if such privileges were, for some reason, whipped out many would not know how to survive. The dependence of technology and modern conveniences now a day's is a frightening characteristic of modern society.
