Technology for the Sake of Technology and Money

Part of: There, I Said It!

Innovation of technology has to be in favor of every citizen of a country and the world. It has to provide more tools for the humankind to be innovative in securing fundamental rights of the citizens. The fundamental rights include right to live, right to express, right for equality and right to peace from violence of any kind. Contrary to it, today’s technology is helping widen gap between haves and have-nots. The technology is helping Wall Street people to gain more wealth per day, but not at all caring about making lives of the common masses easier.

Technology for the People
Technology can innovate ways to bring everything before the footsteps of the Japan's bombing by the USmasses. Instead, it is developing ways to make things more costly so that only the wealthy can own them. Technology is helping pull everything away from the common masses.

Technology should help improve the cultural levels of the humankind. It should also help equate the levels of every culture. It has to introduce sensible human values to every nook and corner. It has to develop the culture of politics and economics to the next highest level. Instead, it is interested only in developing next generation technology leaving aside the lagging generations of the masses. The technology is working for the sake of technology and money.

Human Disaster
Technology keeps calm or mostly keeps a warning button, when the people are becoming insensible to the human values of family, children, daughters, parents, friends and neighbors.

Porn industry is the biggest human disaster for the civilized world, augmented if not invented by the information technology. A natural human affection between opposite sexes has become now a public affair for enjoyment, irrespective of viewers being children, adolescents, youth, lovers, married, respected families and elders.

So many perversions of sex are being glorified through information technology as natural and even claiming human rights. Yesterday, natural course of affection led to bedroom affair, but not to kitchen, hall, drawing room or terrace affair that is now termed innovative.

Today, gay and lesbian rights are just and right but pedophiles are criminals. It is a crime today. However, I doubt whether what is crime today can remain a crime tomorrow, because, what was unnatural yesterday has become natural today. Today’s homophobia (sorry, not amphibia…n) may be termed tomorrow as pedophiliaphobia or something like that.

Though I'm an Engineering drop-out, I'm more concerned about politics for what and how they are. As Economics forms the basis of the politics my interest extended to Economics also. I've been writing in my mother tongue Telugu for last 15 years and in English for last 2 years.

    There are a few typing mistakes in the article.

    In the last but 3rd paragraph, the last sentence should be "However, it was not so, what it advocates."

    In the last but 2nd para, 3rd sentence should start like this, "Money only matters for them..." 5th sentence should be like this, "Google and its friends are ready to axe the branch on which they are sitting."

    The next sentence should start as, "They are going to sink..." and the last sentence should be, "Technology should not become a tragedy."

    In the last but one paragraph, 2nd sentence should be, "Technology is widening rich-poor (not rich-people) gap..."

    My apologies for not looking back what I wrote.
