Terrifying Taught

It seems that technology is being used to sustain a classiest and capitalist system. Every couple of months a new, yet similar product is advertised to fuel the obsession of consumers. An example, are smartphones. At first the touch screen as compared to hand dialing phones was almost revolutionary. The advances and improvements were clear and noticeable. Now, some consumer’s forcefully discuss whether their phone is to small or not big enough. Now, advancements are only slightly different from the original. Sometimes, I wonder what can developers possible improve on. Are these improvements practical? In my opinion is doesn’t always seems that way.

The newest product is not necessarily the best. It’s just fine to want the new skinny toy but I would expect that at least an individual would have to be tried of the old toy first. New advancements are coming out so quickly that they seem suspicious. Did developers plan for the product to be only slightly defective or did they just want to make a quick buck on the product without testing to see if the product would work effectively. The taught is terrifying because it makes me believe that the people have the power or the right to choose is an ideology in isn’t self.

It seems that through the access of the smartphone individuals desires, “needs”, and actions has increased to an obsessive amount.
