it's because we need it, not because we want it. The innovation created technology to make people's life easier, better, and brighter. However, sad to say people tend to abuse it instead of making it with purpose. Let's accept it, we can't back the past. Everything happens and we can't change it, yet we can alter our future to make a disciplanary actions.
the only thing that i think can be effects of technology are our sources i heard that there is limitation for our energy source so if energy source are gone out technology life will gone too..
