In the rapidly changing world, the velocity of advancement is getting higher than ever before. Some demonstrate that high-technology brings people wealth of materials, convenience and comfort. Especially, by using cellular phone wherever people are, people can communicate each other as long as they want. Therefore they may agree that mobile phones have given people more freedom. However, I have a different viewpoint. In my opinion, I don't agree with this above claim for the following reasons. First, the usage of mobile phone intrudes people's privacy. Second, this occurs discomfort from relationships with others.
First of all, the usage of mobile phone disturbs people's privacy with a variety function of the cellular phone. In our modern society, as its functions keep developing, people can find out other people's location and it is possible to talk face to face. Those functions are capable to make feel loosing their own privacies. There is my friend's experience as good example. My friend needed to rest at home on Sunday morning and did not wash her face yet. By the way, her company coworker called using camera phone. She felt uncomfortable to talk.
On top of that, mobile phone sometimes makes people uncomfortable. In other words, people know already, one possess their own cellular phone wherever they go, thus if receiver does not give a call back. It is likely to be considered rude. That is the reason why people have to give a call back when they receive even though they are not willing to call. In this way, it makes receiver's situation uncomfortable because calling should be considered freedom but when someone call, the number left. Subsequently, people should call almost compulsorily. It can make the receiver feel uncomfortable.
As I have mentioned above, despite of many advantages of mobile phone, without any hesitation, I am against the statement that mobile phones have given people more freedom. Since using a cellular phone leads people life to be interrupted by others, as well as people can feel uncomfortable with the phone they don't want receive.
