Science and technology can impact the political

landscape of the society. In the Philippines, the
development of social media changed how Filipinos behave
politically. The netizen can easily express their opinion on
political issues in their social media accounts. It is also
being used for advocacy campaigns and propaganda. Also,
social media is now a platform for political campaigns,
mudslinging and shaming.

Do you think social media, as a technology, is a boon or a

bane to societal development? Why?

I think this is also a blessing in our society because of

the technologies that make things easier such as factories,
because of the modern technology it can send messages
properly even if the recipient is far away, also as a
student, it helps because it is more it makes my projects
and assignments faster and easier. Today's youth are
addicted to modern technologies such as social media.
Many believe that technology has a bad effect on our
society, but there are also many who are in favor of the
development of technology because it brings good results
to the lives of Filipinos. These views are correct, but we
need to study carefully whether technology actually helps
or causes bad effects. The good side effect of this is that
we get a lot of valuable information. Students are also
given enough skills to expand their knowledge not only in
studies but also in society. It can also be a threat to us
especially to all the young people who are addicted to
technology, to the parents of these children it can be a
threat to them to appreciate and guide them in the
correct use of technology. It can also be a threat to our
societal development because it can affect development
due to the excessive use of its people, so appreciate and
protect our country and reduce the use of technology so
that we can focus more on our environment and the
development of our societal. In addition to this, when we
build buildings and malls, we think that our
country/world is getting better because of it, but we
don't know that every time we cut down trees to build
buildings, our trees are slowly dying and being destroyed.
nature. Let's not be dazzled/entertained by modern
technology, there are many things to consider before we
use it.
