> Hasidim don't have an opposition to technology.
Technically, as I understand it, neither do the Amish. They have opposition to uses of technology that they feel undermine the social, and particularly family, structure. This may result on bans on technology which is seen as prone to such use and for which there isn't a combination of positive use and prescribed manner of use that adequately mitigates the problem (the exact boundaries of which differing between different Amish groups.)
