Technological Decline

With every advancement we make as a society in the technological field, we are also declining. More and more we are becoming reliant on these machines. But what if they all decided to shut down and you were left to do everything on your own? No more direct messaging, you’ll have to mail letters. No instantaneous results from computers and calculators, you’ll have to read books and do math by hand. Does nobody remember the switch from 1999 to 2000?!??!? The governments were so horrified that the computer databases would not be able to update the year and the entire process would fry leaving everyone in the dark! Now whenever a wifi server goes down or you experience a blackout; no matter how brief or prolonged the period may be, we go into a frenzy because our parents won’t know where we are, our family won’t know what we are eating, our friends won’t know who we are spending time with. Everything would be PRIVATE! And apparently, that is a devastating thing to happen in this day and age.
