Important Aspect of Internet

Both ted.com and nybooks.com tell that every search engine and website that we use, pick up on the kinds of things that we're interested in. For example, if each of us search something up in google, the results each of us get will be different. This is because companies are personalizing our searches and news feeds to what we regularly view and click on. This disables us from seeing different perspectives and views on topics other than those similar to our own. Those companies are making us to see, do, buy what they want. we are not paying attention to this problem because we need a way to decide what we want to see in internet. In the other hand, this way that they are implementing is good because the system recognize what you want just by knowing some information about you.

There is another article in www.nybooks.com called "Mind Control and the Internet" by Sue Halpern. This article shows that we can see the impact that technology is making in our lives. In medicine, there is a great advance and because of that, many people are able to talk, walk, use their brain, and do other things that are important for the development. In both article, the big problem is that those companies are just worried about making money... I believe they don't care to much about the impact in the society. Having too much technologies in our lives will increase the chance of having a better life. Doctors will not have to take more time studying. There will be more expenses for everybody. All in all, I believe technology is really taking over the world. Soon our lives will depend on technology as we do for air now.
