Negative impacts of computers on society

• These are some examples of computer
  


• The younger generation would rather communicate through computer (easier) than actually working towards making friends or finding love the good old fashion way. Thus, part of the magic of falling in love is lost. People breakup in emails rather than facing the person and as all generations have been taught before we must take responsibility for our own actions.


• A high percentage of people sit at their computer far too long and some people lose reality as far as social activities and learning social skills. Not to mention packing on the weight and the lack of exercise that will haunt them further on down the road.


• Sitting behind a computer all day is hard on the eyes.


• Being on the computer too much takes away the imagination for most (although for a very few they can be creative in advertising and digital imagery, etc. on websites.)


• Computers can distract a person so much they lose contact with the reality around them such as taking time with family, husbands, boyfriends, girlfriends, wives and children.


• It opens up kiddy porn and other immoral things.


• More crime is committed through the Internet.


• More misinformation by SOME people on the Internet can cause problems for the younger generation.


• More person problems by two people on the Internet may cause heartbreak or mistrust. It's impossible to know someone well over the Internet.


• Spammers are annoying.


• Hackers can ruin your computer system.

Many people do work on the computer from their home but smart people do so much, then get up, get moving and get into shape. They spend time with family and friends and limit their time on the computer.

There is a new generation coming up where information is at one's finger tips too easily and then it becomes a personal thing in some people's lives. Before one knows it all will be like zombies wandering around (out of shape) and wondering why no one is relating to them.

While technology is a wonderful thing it is almost likely that it can be used in an immoral or wrong way. There is a price to pay for everything even if it appears it's making life easier on people.
