Change in Society Due to Mobile Technology
Mobile technology is one of the most important things in our life time. They not only give us unlimited entertainment, but they are also great tools. They have long been a part of America and other countries,
and they will be for times to come.Ever since phones weren’t even invented, there have been ways for people to contact one another. They may have taken longer, but it still worked. When the phone was introduced to our society, it started one of the most popular ways to talk to people from great distances. Eventually, phones evolved into more advanced machines, and were turned into mobile technology. These cordless devices can be taken anywhere, so any one on the earth can be contacted by someone. The mobile phones have been spread out to many countries on earth. It could possibly be the best way to keep up with the statuses of other people.
The privacy of this technology has evolved greatly, as well as the technology itself. There are tons of security settings, passwords, sharing abilities that these machines can give you. The problem is that not everyone is going to have the best password, not everyone is going to have a secure cell phone. Some phones don’t even bother with security settings, and anyone who finds it can just use it however they want. They could make long distance calls, and anything else to provoke the bill. The security on mobile technology is pretty useful, but not perfect.
Even though the entertainment on these phones and iPods are great, that doesn’t mean this is good for everyone. Once phones were first invented, they only had on use… talking. The only way to use phones was to talk into them. Cell phones still have that feature, but now they have other ways to communicate with people, like texting. Now most of the conversations that people have just include texting. It’s not like this feature is bad, it’s just that the main idea of a phone is kind of being thrown away. These phones and iPods also have the useful wireless internet function. This can be used for many things, and could be used for irresponsible things as well. Some kid who could be taking a test can pull out his iPod and look up an answer for a question. This is not providing the smart minds of America as effectively as just studying. When kids are studying, they don’t want to just look at some paper for half an hour. They are going to pull out their cell phone and get distracted. These are all things that can be portrayed as negatives to mobile technology.
Even though there are many negatives with this subject, there are also many positives. The point is, this would be one dull and empty country without this technology.
