Technology includes tools, techniques, and power sources to make life easier. While science examines how and why things happen, technology focuses on making things happen. The document also lists some key advantages and disadvantages of technology. Advantages include ease of access to information from around the world via the internet and time savings from navigation apps. Disadvantages comprise issues of data security as well as anonymity and fake personas online enabling anti-social behavior.

2. Technology
The word technology is a combination of two Greek
words, techne and logos.
Techne means art, craft, or skill.
Logos means “to speak of”.
Some have since taken the word logos to imply the
practical application of techne, but others say that is
stretching its etymological roots.

3. Technology is an application of knowledge to the
practical aims of human life or to changing and
manipulating the human environment.
Technology includes the use of materials, tools,
techniques, and sources of power to make life
easier or more pleasant and work more
productive. Whereas science is concerned with
how and why things happen, technology focuses
on making things happen.

4. Today, technology is very important because it is
used for almost everything and like everything,
technology has advantages and disadvantages

5. Advantages of using Technology
Ease Of Access To Information
The World Wide Web, abbreviated as www has
made the world a social village. This is because
information from all around the globe is widely available
on the internet. While most of the news you get to see on
social media is purely factual, one may also see image
results for particular news. Not only more news is
available, but all such information is also straightforward
to access. All thanks to modern technology.

6. Saves Time
Have you ever faced navigation problems in an
unfamiliar town? Yes, we all have faced such issues
when we move to a new place. Be it a business trip or a
vacation; modern technology allows you to enjoy your
outings by helping you navigate to anywhere. One can
search for a particular place and then even pinpoint
their specific destination. The application itself does
rest.

7. •Disables, Are Now Able
Modern science and technology have now
made nearly everything possible. Recently, brails
which work on electronic pulses have been
invented. Artificial foot, smart sticks and what not
is invented. Disabled are no more disables. They
are surely in the long run of success along with
the normal ones.

8. Disadvantages of using Technology
• Data Security
Digital technology means that vast amounts of data can be
collected and stored. This can be private information concerning
individuals or organizations. It can be very difficult to keep this
data safe. Just a single breach can mean vast amounts of private
information going into the hands of criminals, terrorists, foreign
enemies, or other malign entities.

9. • Anonymity and Fake Personas
Digital technology provides wide scope for users to
hide their identities. Studies show that people are much
more likely to behave anti-socially if they don't think that
there will be any consequences. Bullying, trolling, stalking,
threatening, and insulting behavior have all increased
dramatically with the rise of the internet. People assume
fake personas for the purposes of scamming and
defrauding. Pedophiles use fake personas to gain access
and befriend children.
