I guess we can read into this way too much and become too philosophical.

Technology might make your life easier, but that doesn't mean it makes anyone else's easier.

Technology might help you send a missile into another country, but that doesn't make their lives easier.

Technology is a tool that we use to do what we want to do easier, better however you put it, but it doesn't necessarily make our lives easier. It makes a particular job or task easier.

Even writing this down I am getting too philosophical and disagreeing with myself.

I guess it could make your life easier day to day, but that doesn't mean it makes anyone else easier.
