Naysayers #3
My view is that the technological advancements that society has achieved to this day should benefit society, especially the younger crowd, but with a limit. Young adults and teenagers today waste way too much time on things like Facebook and Twitter. Andrew McAfee disagrees in his article "Why the Internet is not Making us Stupid." One of his arguments is that people can express themselves online to a very large crowd, some good that does to society. His other argument, which I can agree with, is that kids who live in developed countries have access to more information than every before to expand their knowledge. McAfee, however, doesn't describe the fact that most kids DON'T use this opportunity to look up useful information but instead waste time "expressing" themselves on social media websites.
