The luxuries that this modern society has developed are great in some respects, but the underlying truth is that the fast-paced nature of technology is hindering some to the extent that they can't even hold a decent conversation. In the novel "Fahrenheit 451" by Ray Bradybury, in the poem "The Sound of Silence" by Paul Simon and also in the article "Social websites damage children's brains: a chilling warning to parents from a top neuroscientist ", the technology is used symbolically to demonstrate that it affects attention span, the ability to think rationally, and how the user's minds are rewired as if we were children again.
