Some people dislike or fear technology. Do you know anyone like this?
I don’t fear tech but I do have a healthy respect for it. Too many people are nonchalant about what they do. Not realizing that everything they do is monitored. For those who dislike tech, I just think of it as a personal choice. They don’t care to have it in their lives & do just fine.
 
As an IT admin, I fear it daily :p
 
I think people are too paranoid about tech monitoring you. I also noticed that the less people know about it, the more paranoid they are. Those people tend to protect themselves online in the most half-assed way where it doesn't actually do anything.
 
I fear that technology products breaks like a hard drive suddenly breaking, and I can't recover the files, or need to spend a lot of money for data recovery, and also buying a new hard drive which used to be more expensive.
 
I do believe tech is dangerous to young children. The other day I saw a bunch of 5 year olds sitting together and texting the entire time - no actual talking. I worry about their social development and ability to interact in the real world as adults.
 
I like the idea that the more I use tech, the more I learn about myself. But that can have consequences that lead to more or less getting done.

I love technology! I think tech makes life both fun and interesting!

I do think we need to make sure it doesn't consume us. I take breaks from tech often to just be able to focus on my faith, my wife, and my kids, and enjoy life outside of a screen.
 
I don't fear technology itself. I might be afraid of somebody misusing it......like when someone decides to hack your computer or cell phone.

There are times I might find certain tech annoying but I don't hate it.
