Opinion: Has Technology Caused More Harm Than Good ?

Technology is the application of scientific knowledge for practical purposes, esp. in industry: "computer technology"; "recycling technologies", It can also be defined as the application of scientific knowledge for practical purposes.
Technology runs in the vein of our society, it is an integral part of every society, It has brought luxury to the life of every man, it is the backbone of every other sector. just think about how a life without technology will be, no clothes, no cars, no processed food, not even computers.
Technology as automated many critical processes in the industry and in our homes as well, machines and robots can now perform task, learn and adopts new things with little or no human interference, technology has also rescued us from the boredom of daily chores, not to mention the impact on entertainment and advertising industries.Time will not allow us to go In Toto on the positive effects. 
let us consider the negative effects.
With the introduction of Mp3s, TVs and computers,  humans life have become easier but also lazier. Obesity in children is at peak levels. Kids are preferring to stay at home and play computer games rather than going out and socializing like they used to. Quite simply kids are losing their social life, getting fatter and are having low academic achievements all because of their addictive games on Xboxes, Play Stations etc.
But not only the children, it has also affected lives of adults.Cell phones can cause brain tumors and computers cause problems with your hands and fingers, and posture.
Should we take the risks and continue with technology ?
