Do you agree with their statement on technology as a tool as opposed to something that makes our lives easier then?

Can't imagine willingly using a tool that I assess makes my life more difficult.

But that doesn't mean that tools don't make others lives more difficult.

Missiles as a tool to do damage don't necessarily make other peoples lives easier. But it might make the lives easier of those who wish to do damage.

Technology is a tool, which can be used to make lives easier and harder.

"Every person using technology will make every other person's life easier" is not the correct interpretation of the original statement.
