It is correct to say that communication technology has transformed the lives of everyone today. In almost every family, there is a minimum of one device ranging from laptops to smartphones, television and a host of others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The possession of these devices is to what end? It is to make our lives easier and more fun-filled. With these devices, we have been able to break geographical barriers and communicate with people far and near.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, it is imperative to mention that communication technology comes with its adverse effects when it is not utilized properly. And the sad part is, a good number of people are victims of the negative effects of communication technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, too much of tech solutions around us has made a good number of people possess poor social skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These days, several business meetings are held on Zoom, Skype and other teleconferencing platforms. For the younger generation, they meet and discuss more on chat rooms than real-time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Due to this, it subtly competes for the essence of real-life communication where you implement features like facial expression, body language, voice tone and the likes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also, even though communication technology has made learning easier, there are major downsides to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are some students who would rather plagiarize when they have assignments to submit. They do not have the luxury of time to study, so they would rather copy word-for-word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This occurrence has affected the learning curve because these young individuals would rather dedicate their time for something else instead of learning online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are also physical effects of communication technology and one notable one is obesity. When you sit down all day at your Laptop or Phone, there is a huge chance for you to be obese. A sedentary lifestyle devoid of exercising makes people develop a bad posture and a curved backbone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To wrap it up, some parts of the internet are not safe anymore. Some people have had their privacy and security infringed on because they visited a certain website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is crucial to mention that whilst reaping the benefits of communication technology, we should tread carefully in virtual space.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
