look around you, what industry are you in, what city do you leave in, and tell me you have not seen the goodness of technology. from the way we communicate with each other, to the way we move around, to how we get services around us. to delivering things. what about helping your business reach more audience. or we should mention the role it has played in hospitality. one of the technology sector i respect so much is in tech in healthcare, imagine the technology that believes you can be awake up again after death.,

The Bad

bad players are the first to know about new trends of technology, infact it is believed that major revolutionary technologies are well used in the underworld of darkweb & darknet far before it surface to the world wide web.

For example: after the successful breakthrough of cryptocurrency, the bad players came to know about it first, why? because of its claimed anonymous nature, and it became ideal currency to pay good illicit goods and services rendered on darknet. after the successful shutdown of silk road, one of the wildly know darknet marketplace in Oct 2013, the Govt claimed to have met about 70,000 btc in Ross Ulbricht's possession.

The Ugly

every new concept have a bad side, just the way you can't go into any investment without looking at the risk involve. the ugly side of technology is like cancer. the idea is to use technology,not allowing technology to use you is the objective.

   1. we still haven't talked about the psychological effect of the content posted on social platform. hateful & racial speech, what about online strolling & criticism?
