Technology: Simplicity vs. Complication

“Technology is a way to simplify a person’s life by complicating it.”

Just a thought that crossed my mind about how we keep on creating new ways to simplify our lives and become lazier, yet these same things end up complicating our life more and adding our dependancy on a number of gadgets, services, resources, sources …etc.

We create ways to move around freely and do anything from anywhere, as a way to feel some freedom, but in the end of the day we’re tying ourselves to all these devices and inventions, and putting ourselves at the mercy of them, their manufacturers, their sources…etc.

We create an illusion of simplicity and freedom while we dive deeper into complexity and tech-slavery.
