Clearly, smartphones can make many things easier in some ways; however, "they are a source of serious distraction and rude behavior." This statement is stated directly by the article. Dan Kadlec uses numerous data and sources such as ACI Worldwide and Aite Group, Lookout study to demonstrate a large number of people are using cell phones right now. Furthermore, these data also present the concern of smartphone owners and the strong impact that smartphones have on human beings. Clearly, 94% of smartphone owners fear losing their phone, but only 6% worry about “security issues related to their smartphone accessing financial accounts.” Furthermore, the frequency of checking and using the phone is quite high and people use it almost all the time, for example while in bed, in the bathroom, during a meal and even during religious service. I think I can use the information in this article to write about the influence and negative effects of using smartphones in our lives. Tucker, Jeffrey.
