Technology has its diverse implications in our day to day lives. On the one hand it has generated employment opportunities, lessened workload and helped us reach out to people promptly, it has also brough in a set of obstacles. Technology has exposed us to newer dimensions of risk through threat in cyber space, health hazards, invasion of privacy and enhancing traditional criminal techniques. The impairment of societal structure, the degeneration of socializing and the loss of synergy in personal relationships are its other long-term implications.
