2. (Comprehension) Summarize what is being discussed within this chapter?

We depended so much on technology instated of making decision based on our moral ethics. We use technology to predict a solution for our problems rather than using solving the problems in a moral ways. We don’t realize that technology has negative impact on humans. Millions of people today use online banking not a lot of people go to bank because we are too lazy to drive or walk to the bank. The use of online banking resulting in identity fault.


3. (Application)Name a specific example or NEW solution for this type of problem/similar situation in society or that you have experienced – be specific and explain?

Online banking has eliminated the number of bank tellers it’s dropped from 480,000 to 301,000 as the technology increased number of employment decreased. We have a similar situation in our society today. Millions of people today they don’t have jobs cause by the government and technology. Most of our jobs are transfer to others country where people work for low wages so companies they don’t have to worry about pay the workers health insurance or other benefits.

I agree with this article because technology has become a big issue to the society, and it has a big impact on our everyday lives. As technology increase the more conflicts we face in dally bases for example people are robbed after withdrawing money at the ATMs. A thief steals million of dollars with stolen and counterfeit ATM cards. Thieves who can obtain our account number and other personal information can access our account online. A human teller would notice if the same person mad numerous withdraws.



6. (Evaluation) Address all that apply. Judge whether or not this topic is relevant in today’s society? Evaluate why you are viewing the topic in this manner based on your experiences. What ethical evaluations (see Chap1-1.4 for exp of Ethics) or decisions were made/can be assumed from this chapter? What new ideas will you make after reading this chapter?

This topic is relevant to today society because not lot of people use their mine to think we use technology for everything we do on our dally based. Affter reading this chapter i have come to conclusion that we should put a limitation on the use of technology, so that we can make decisions without depending on the technology. many of us to day we can't do anything without useing technology, technology has taken control of our lives it is time to put the break on and see how technologt affects us.
