technology has made us dependent
We live in an amazing world during a time of innovation and discovery. An era where we can instantly communicate with people across the 7 oceans, an era where our whole lives are uploaded into one place and an era where we are constantly connected to each other.
But not only that we have created inventions and machines to make our lives easier, more efficient some dare say, from the mastery of flight to the creation of the remote control.

Some speculate the world would be thrown back a couple ages.
Now let’s just think of your common workplace, almost all companies have an advanced computerized system which organises tasks, helps the delivery of information and keep a record of the happenings in that workplace. If that system, the central hubs that controls the workings of the company, was say to be hit offline, most workplace become ineffectual and are not able to operate this applies from banks to legal firms.

Now, I believe majority of young adults own a smartphone of some kind, and many of us would feel lost without it. Smartphones connect us to this other world, a world of communication where we tap on a name and are instantly connected to them. A couple decades back smartphones didn’t
