the pandemic
pandemic --- @Eduardo. I respectfully disagree with this assertion that the covid-19 caused the advanced intrusion in our daily lives. technology has caused intrusion into our lives not the pandemic - the pandemic simply forced persons to inadvertently revert to the internet to buy/sell or seek access to health and educational services which could not be reached or accessed due to the virus - this is totally different from saying that its the virus which caused disruption of our lives. Point in case - WhatsApp went down for a few hours and illions could not function within 2 or 3 hours of outage - health appointments were disrupted, education to children stopped, doctors could not send medical appoints or health institutions could not schedule work, etc. etc. That's not the covid-19 but our dependence on technology.
