This shows us that technology can be addictive. Jonathan Mandell's article They're Gadgets and the Internet is Addictive recalls a time in April 2007 when BlackBerry users couldn't send or receive emails for 11 hours due to a glitch in the system. Many people have reported this as a natural disaster (Mandell, 2007). People rely on technology so much that it is becoming a big problem in our society when it becomes temporarily unavailable. Being able to plan your entire day on your smartphone and at the same time lock your front door contributes to society's laziness and addiction to technology.
