Dear Readers,

In this report we will analyse why technological progress has more pros than cons. Even though to describe the way in which technology is affecting society is honestly a complicated process, we can say that this development in science is improving people's life.

From electric toothbrush and electric tin opener to digital camera phone, every day new electronic gadgets are invented and it is impossible not to use them in everyday activities. It is incredible how in a very short period of time technology devices have changed the form of society's life. Almost everyone believe that the most important advancement in technology is in appliances because it helps with housework, specially these days in which everyone spend a lot of time at work.

However, technology also affects teenager's way of expressing themselves on the internet. The best part of going online is that we are connected to everyone which allow us to learn new cultures and languages while making friends. Also, we hace access to all types of information. But it has some disadvantages like becoming absorbed by the internet, forgetting about real life. Not to mention that we never know who is browsing our social network and what they are going to do with the files we share. We can take as an example the actresses whose mobile were hacked and their nudes were leaked on the inernet. Also, it does not matter that we delete a file, it never really disappear.

In order to prevent all these problems with the internet, we would recommend with special interest on teenagers, to learn more about technology before using it or to ask pofessionals for a better practice of it.

On conclusion, although there are different cons to technology, the pros are more important as we have explained before with domestic devices. Besides, using internet as a tool of work or to have fun is positive if we use it with caution.
