It looks like one of those advances in our quality of life that come with developments in technology. On a closer look, it is anything but the truth! How often have we not been uncomfortable in trusting some unknown customer representative with our innermost financial secrets? Especially more so in the USA with the Social Security Number and Driver's License number opening the doors to virtually any kind of information about a person. But it is a case where there is no going back!
It was so pleasant in India when you went to the bank with your passbook and got an entry for every transaction you performed with your account. No 'Please wait, the next available customer representative will be with you shortly' hour-long telephone calls and no cyber security issues to be worried about.
Are there not so many instances when we wish that we were not victims of technology advancement? Dont we, many times, wish we to left behind to ourselves to what we are comfortable with?
