Give an example of how the digital explosion is "neither good nor bad" but has
both positive and negative implications.
Find and summarize a news article that talks about the positive or negative
impacts of a computing innovation. Is the technology itself positive or
negative? Or have people used the technology in positive and/or negative
ways? - correct answer ✔An example of this would be privacy on cell
phones. Today, a user can store personal information on their phone. Many
people have bank accounts,pictures, emails, and social security number and
passport all their back pockets. This could be dangerous because someone or

worth it
