Top 10 Worst Technologies

This article by MIT is just ... fun.

I don't know which one I agree with more but their top 10 list of worst technologies so far in this century is well worth reading.

https://www.technologyreview.com/s/612930/the-10-worst-technologies-of-the-21st-century/

Here is my favorite entry (or least liked product?):

Juul and other e-cigarettes are addicting a new generation to nicotine, through a loophole that allowed them to escape public health regulations meant to discourage cigarette smoking. Plastic coffee pods save half a minute in the mornings but produce tons of hard-to-recycle waste. And as for selfie sticks … need we say more?

Happy Reading,
