The “HUMACHINERY” -Social Networks technology impacts

Children start using computers and mobiles from early age. By or before teenage, they are immersed in all kinds of social networks, which makes making friends very easy, plus they are far reaching tools and enable real time interaction, any time any where. They also provide more visibility of all parties, with low or no privacy. These features, though seem nice and likable, have negative impacts on us since, beside breaching of privacy at times (which may have security dangers in limited cases), they keep us alert all the time (no real peace of mind), trigger envy and greed feelings at times, plus reduce physical and emotional interaction.  Living in a virtual world or society, created by these networks, is leading us to stay away from realities, producing people with lower social and emotional intelligence, beside can lead to depression and distorted personalities.

If we continue at the current pace and practice, people will loose some of their humanity features and turn into modular machinery figures, converging into few typical global “HUMACHINERY” modules, applying to all people, whether you live in China, USA, Europe or in Africa.
