It's easy to fall into the trap of assuming that a new technology is very similar to its predecessors.

I have no opposition at all to technology. I think technology is a wonderful thing that has to be used thoughtfully, and we can't just assume that every bit of new technology improvesthe quality of life; it's really in how the technology is used.
