The advancement of technology, specifically computes have significantly impact our world in a multitude of ways. One of these ways is by allowing people to work from home. There are multiple benefits about people working from home on their personal computers. The first is that they are able to be home for any potential emergencies and it allows them to have more time at home with their families or pets. The second is that working remotely causes people to drive less. This contributes to a significant decrease in air pollution which is definitely a positive impact. The second impact that computers have impacted our world is by giving complete unrestricted access to the world around us. This includes social media, music, audio, images, and books. The thing that connects all of this is the internet. However without computes as the hardware, the internet would be useless. A third impact of computers is wireless communications. Wireless communications means that we can communicate with anyone virtually anywhere in the world through audio chat, video chat, emails, or messages. Professionally speaking, business could be conducted virtually from all across the country without a central location needed. Also, this affects relationships through allowing couples to stay in touch without regard to the distance between them. A negative impact of computers is that crime can become anonymous and dangerous. Some of the crimes that can be committed through computers are identity theft and cyber stalking. These are very serious and can ruin a persons life if not protected against through the use of cyber security applications. The rise of the use of computers has caused peoples social skills to decline. This means that people may communicate well online or through messages. But in person it is hard for people to communicate to a single or multiple individuals. I have found more pros to the engineering of computers due to the fact that in modern society, one cannot function in business or society without one.
