Debate: Does Technological Progress Do More Harm Than Good?
Side: Technological Progress Is Bad

Technology can be used to severely harm people when the wrong people have it. Things such as strike drones have been used to launch attacks without thought of collateral damage. New tech can also be used to spy on the average person. That violates our privacy as citizens of the United States of America. Technology has also caused suicides because of cyberbullying to the point of no return. Even worse people are becoming addicted to their technology and becoming less and less social. If that continues people will eventually lose their social skills and not know how to function in the real world.

Technology does more harm than good, because of its effect on our social, mental, and physical health. The constant use of communicating through phones and other devices hinders our social skills by giving us the inability to observe and learn from body language and social cues. 51% of teens say they would rather interact digitally than in-person, even with their friends. This also increases the chance of kids being bullied. About 80% of teenagers cause attest to being bullied online in some fashion and this has lead to increased youth violence, which can lead to poor mental health. Let alone the stress that can be caused by constantly wanting to be “in the loop” of what is going on. From a more physical standpoint, constantly looking down at your device can lead to neck pain or headaches from the eyestrain. The attachment people may feel can result in poor sleeping habits and looking at the screen and its glow may reduce the release of the chemical that helps us sleep, melatonin. However, people can very easily argue against the negativity of technology, but you cannot ignore the facts that it could hurt you as well.

There are many reasons showing on how technology now has some really bad sides to it.One big reason is how the drones are shooting american citizens even if they are on the list sometime those people aren’t even doing anything wrong. Another example of how technology is bad now is look at how many deaths there are from texting and driving or playing Pokemon Go and not paying attention on where you are going. And in school there are some students who might not graduate or pass because they are texting or playing a game,i mean yes you could say that is there own choice to do that but there is videos or pictures on the internet and websites saying that even some teachers are going on there phones and texting. And the people here thinking technology is good well that is not right you got robots that can watch you and do things for you. That could turn this country lazy more than it already is and so much more. This is my evidence on why technology needs to end

Technology is bad because it can reduce learning. Studies show it can affect learning and distract students from studying and doing work. Behind tardies, cell phones are the next reason for students to be in detention from 7th grade and up. Also, students that only use technology one hour a day are more likely to succeed in school than students who use technology more than 1 hour a day. I’m not saying if you use technology a lot you will fail school, I’m just saying the less you use it the better you will get. People might say it can be used for learning, but any chance a student can get to not do work, they will play games, myself included.

Technology advancement is tearing apart society. Most say it’s making the world a better place. There are times now where families won't talk at the dinner table, they’re too busy on their cell phones. Their are so many people who say they couldn't live without technology. “It's my life”. Yet there are so many people in this world who don't own a phone, or a tv, or even a refrigerator. Instead of making another iphone maybe they should give some technology to the 3rd world countries and helping them out. So we don't have to keep labeling them as the 3rd world and just refer to everyone as equal.

There is many reasons why technological progress is bad. It makes a huge distraction, for example the more kids play video games the less studying and lower grades there are. It is a addiction because the more you are on the XboxOne, PS4, Wii U or any other consoles the more you want to play more. It takes away energy from the earth. People who become professional on engineering, programing or any other computer jobs start to forget to be nice. It damages your brain. Did you know that you can get paper and pencil and/or pen is cheaper then a computer.

Technology is awful. All it does is destroy the environment. Its proponents would argue that technological advances in medicine save lives, but I would argue that all that does is overpopulate the planet. There’s too many people, and we cannot sustain them all. This is all due to the advancement of technology. People over-rely on technology and become weak. Humanity was better off when it relied solely on hunting with their bare hands. That made humans healthy and strong, and fit. Now we’re all fat and lack significant muscles.

Technology has advanced our people to be able to automate and create new products and brings news around the world faster. But that isn’t necessarily a good thing. A more connected world in media makes us less unique and closer to falling under one culture or belief instead of the huge diversity the world has had to offer. And the new technology we’ve used to make products is taking jobs of workers. Eventually we will become so dependant on technology that we are no longer able to function by ourselves without the support of some piece of tech. This will cause anarchy and throughout the world and people will have to fight to survive when or technology fails and we will be thrown back into the stone age. Humans from hundreds of years in the future will see our structures as gifts from aliens and be just as lost as we were and still are.

The older technology reduced the rate in which we produce good significantly. It would take so many more people working by hand in order to make a ship than people who use machines to make a ship. The quality of the things we create are much higher than things in the older ages of time where we didn't have technology. There will be no future without technology, we will have nothing to progress against what the world may throw at us...or the sun. Technology won't fail if we keep progressing, the technology that does fail will not be as good as the new technology that works in the present and the technology in the future will be better than the tech we have now.

I WILL SAY IT WAS A ROBOT THAT SAVED THEM FROM THAT LIFESTYLE. BUT WHEN THEY GOT BACK TO EARTH THEY SAID THEY WERE GONNA MAKE PIZZA PLANTS.

Technology can be great at times, but when people use things a lot, they get used to using them. Can you remember the last time you went a day without technology? No, you can't that's because we have grown so attached to our technology and devices, that we can never go back to life without it. If there ever comes a day when technology is not available to you, you're in trouble. The whole world relies on technology way too much. If your printer breaks on you and your paper is due tomorrow, what will you do? If you typed you paper, but the file corrupts or the computer crashes, what will you do? If you write your paper on a piece of paper, what could go wrong besides you losing it (Which is your own fault).

While increasing the technology and having better technology can help us,it can also cause a lot of harm. Let’s say one day we become so advanced we have machines basically living our lives for us,what will stop them from just taking our lives? That future is not too far from becoming a reality. That isn’t the only thing though, as technology increases and becomes easier to obtain,humans will also become easier to kill from across the world.

Technology is bad because your privacy and information can be stolen. Say you sign up for Facebook and fill in all the information. Facebook now has access to all of your personal information, and somebody could get into their databases and find that information. Also, in education, typing on a computer may be simpler and easier than writing by hand, but your brain remembers the information better when you write by pencil.

Technology is bad because the government can track you easier and see what you do. This can also affect you when you try get a job, what if you like to do things you shouldn't be doing on the computer and the interviewer finds this and you don't get the job because of that. If there wasn't technology this interviewer would never have known that you were doing things you shouldn't be doing. It would also be harder for them to find bad things about you.

Technological progress does more harm than good, since it damages the attention span of the young adults who use it. All social networks that teenagers and young adults use cause an addiction to arise: children become addicted to their phones. Their constant need to check their posts and tweets causes their attention on school work or other important work to diminish. The popular social media sites also take away their privacy causing young adults to be more susceptible hacking. While it may be helpful in school with complete access to information all of the time it still is not health since children have an easier time to look up inappropriate content or check their social media accounts. There is more risk of misusing technology in the classroom if it is allowed.Technological progress is also bad in the genetic field. The use of designer babies deforms the children before they are even born. Although genetically modifying babies can save them from future health risks such as cancer, heart disease or type two diabetes, it can also eradicate certain genes in the gene pool. It can also cause an epidemic that can kill a certain “race” of people if they all have the same trait. For example, if most of a generation has blonde babies a disease could be created from that certain gene combination, causing an epidemic with the power to kill that generation.

Technological progress does more harm than good as it allows people access to things they otherwise would never come in contact with. True many people use technology in almost every aspect of their lives and benefit from it however it allows access to bad things people shouldn’t be exposed to. For example advances in technology have allowed people to look up the answer to a question that’s been nagging them from a small device, or keep up on the latest news while on juggling a busy schedule. However that small device also gives a person the ability to look up how to make something like a bomb or do something else illegal. It also holds a lot more information than people think and when they are not careful , people are able to use that information for something like one of the most prevalent crimes in America; Identity theft. Therefore, technological progress is bad because its negatives definitely outweigh its positives.

Technology over the years has advanced very fast, very quickly to just think 20 years ago computers were primitive and only could do very simple arithmetic. But now today technology in those 20 years have evolved computers and other devices to be so much more powerful right now we all have powerful computers in our pockets to pull information at will and this could be a problem it’s not very hard to break a phone and transform it at will to do what you desire think of jail breaking or rooting very simple if you know what you’re doing. This poses a big problem will hackers evolved this tech for portable destruction devices Watch Dogs® has shown us a future that phones and devices can be used for large scale hacking and this can make us get random strangers names, date of birth, credit card, house address, and the list goes on and on technology is evolving and we need to take the proper precaution to stop this from happening. In the end I pose we severely limit the technological evolution to prevent a world of fear from hackers and terrorist.

I think technological progress is bad because while it has the potential to be good, it also has the potential to be bad. A reason it is bad is because technology can become weaponized and become a threat to humans. Terrorists can also get a hold of technology and become an even bigger threat. Another reason is that it can be more irritating than helpful. For example, a device can break or malfunction, and run out of battery. It can be a hassle if you cannot keep it running. Another issue is connectivity issues, servers can go down, or you cannot connect to internet. It is very frustrating when these things do not work normally. While it can be good, such as advancing medical technology or saving lives, it can also do the opposite. We can use technology to create biological weapons using previous genes from deadly diseases. Overall, i think technology will become a threat to humanity if not contained.

The advancement of technology is constantly harming our society and how we work on a day to day basis. There are multiple viewpoints of this argument that support my decision. The never ending thought of reaching down and grabbing your phone disrupts focus and productivity in school as well as the work environment. Also, with addition too the many distractions technology offers, it can also have a large impact on personal security. Without precautionary measures taken, anyone or anything can access personal information that can be used against you. This goes hand in hand with technology that can be used to hack or gain information of an individual or group of individuals against their consent. With the growing advancements of technological platforms, this has caused people to rely heavily on their devices, causing them to become lazy. Everyday activities that may have used physical exertion to complete have now been taken over by devices to finish the task. While some technology may help in learning and difficult tasks, the cons heavily outweigh the pros.

Ever since the beginning of mankind, humanity has had but one thought in their minds, progress. To keep on improving as a whole, and ever since the discovery of technology, humanity has been able to advance twice as quickly. But when is enough, finally enough? For the past century humanity has gone a long way, in the way of improving technology. We’ve gone so far, we’ve actually began creating drones, in order to perform tasks that we would usually have to do. For example, instead of sending our troops out to areas they’re supposed to go, we are beginning to send remote-controlled, armed drones, instead of soldiers. One day, we may not even have to control the drones, and it will have the capability of controlling itself, and this could result in bad things happening. What if the drones were to malfunction, and started misfiring its weapons? This could lead to a numerous amount of casualties, that could have been avoided, if we stopped the improvement of technology while we had the chance. We should stop improving technology as much as we are, before the robots we are creating become too much for us to handle, and something dire happens.

I think that having technological advancements are bad. The reason they are bad is because in most of schools these days students have phones in their pockets. If a student gets a text message it will distract them from their learning environment and have them pull out their phone. Every time they take out their phone they risk getting it being taken away. You may think that will stop them from looking at their phones? No it doesn’t. Another thing that should be recognized is the students using the computers at school inappropriately. The students when they get an opportunity to use the computers, some kids actually do what they’re supposed to do. The other 70% don’t do what they’re assigned to do. Then if the teacher sees what they are doing they will get in trouble. One last thing is giving the students their own laptop to take home, but in our case they are chromebooks. I have heard many cases of students trying to hack the chromebooks to do what they want to do instead of being blocked by the school wifi. Some people in the school have figured out the wifi password which allows pretty much everything through. So then the teachers can not stop that because they dont even know that's even happening in their classroom. So I ask you, what do you think on the technological advancements these days.

I believe that technological advancement is bad. My first reason is because bad people like isis could use it against us. Next if we make big robots, they could be hacked. My third reason is that they could turn against us like in the movie I, Robot. If we become very dependant on technology, and all the power on earth went out, we would all mostly die. Those are my thoughts on technological advancement.

Technological Progress is bad because if we have more technology that is just more ways for a hacker to get into a system and shut everything down. Technology is also bad for education because students can break the device and it will cost lots of money. Or if a device breaks down and loses all of a student's data? Paper can’t shut down and lose data. Lastly, devices can be very complicated. They can be hard to use, and if you don’t use them right that can get messed up and slow down the process.

I think that technological progress is not that great. It may be helping us get work done faster but also will cost many people their jobs. We can’t always be relying on advanced technology to save our country. What we are building to protect us might get out of control and turn on us. Say if the United States sends a drone to another country; it can be shot down and taken apart to do research on it to build something better.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

I think that yes, texting does have an effect on people when they talk orally or write it down. For example, its real annoying and sounds stupid when someone says orally, "lol". You sound like an idiot and some people don't even know what your saying. And also, if your writing some big final essay, you might get caught up into it and write like you would text something, like "omg" or "r" instead of "are". We get too used to texting.

Yes, I think texting does have some bad effects on your writing abilities. For example, when you go to write an essay, you might inadvertently write 'u' instead of 'you'. I think that most people can keep this under control though, so I really don't think it's that big of a deal. Just know that you are doing a formal paper or whatever you might be doing and write in the correct manner. It's not that hard.
