The Medium Is the Message by Marshall Mcluhan
I overall agreed with Marshall Mchulan's observation that technology, while having many positive effects on society also has negative effects. Years ago before computers, cell phones, and tablets people interacted face to face and spent more time outdoors and participating in activities that enriched their lives and encouraged growth and bonding. With the advancement of television and media streaming it is less likely for a family to spend a Friday night together bowling, or visiting a park now they opt for a movie or time in front of the television. During this time each member usually has at least one other device by their side and there is a minimal amount of conversing.
I agree with you on the negative drawbacks of technology
