Are we in a "new" depression?

The song "mad world" already has an eerie and depressing tone but when you pair it with this video it is even more powerful. This video is showing the negative sides of technology and how it is affecting our youth. The video has one young child in it that does not have a phone. Everyone around the child is glued to their phones and the child seems to be lonely. The loneliness of the child paired with the song leads you to believe that the child is depressed.  I think that this video is an accurate representation of what our society is coming too. Children are starting to use technology at very young ages now.

What are the differences between the iPhone 11 and the iPhone 11 Pro? as you can see there are many differences between the two phones. The one difference that I am interested in is the cameras!! I love photography and having three different cameras on an iPhone is CRAZY!!!!   The different lens is a photographer's dream! There is a normal lens, a telephoto lens, and a wide lens.

Plus if you want to switch between the 3, you would have to take the lens on and off.  To check out more information on the iPhone click here! !

While on one hand, they are always there if you have a question, what to good something, spell something and or what they to turn the lights on. But the reason they are so amazing is that they are ALWAYS listening for their wake word. ARKANSAS - In 2015 James Bates was on trial for murder and the prosecutors suspended the audio from the Alexa device in his home where he allegedly murdered his friend. Even though this trial was in 2015 last month amazon filed a notion saying that using the audio from Bates' Alexa was actually a violation of his First Amendment Right. This story makes me question whether or not using the audiotape in the murder investigation is considered fair. When the first amendment was created we did not have all of theses communication devices so how are people going to say that they are or are not a...
