34、s something different about this technology: it is both invasive and persuasive. but whos at fault for its overuse？ To find solutions, its important to understand what were dealing with.There are four parties conspiring to keep you connected the tech, your boss, your friends and you.D.The technologi
35、es themselves and their makers, are the easiest suspects to blame for our diminishing attention spans.
