A device or process that appears/is claimed to help the environment, while in actuality causing environmental damage to use.
Person 1: You shouldn't use a piece of tissue to get a spider out of your home, it could hurt the spider! use a reusable plastic cup instead.
Person 2: Would you drink from that same cup afterwards?
Person 1: What no why?
Person 2: Well, a cup is harder to make than a tissue, and they both get thrown out afterwards, some real Spider Cup Technology you got going on there.

Abused by technology : users being stalked by algorithyms to benefit an app creator or advertisers. taking advantage of users by showing them "eye candy". This technique allows the user to be distracted while trying to complete a task at hand, advertisement displayed is sure to pique the interest of the user and take them away from their priority task.
For most websites, the user is interacting with Bots as they seek assistance, not a human. If a bot communicates to users in the wrong context it is therefore, not a human to blame. Robots do mislead users to buy plug ins they don't need, for example as it is an upsell. Beneficial for the Corporate Giant. Not the user.
When the Corporate Giants of tech are allowing algorythms to trick thier users, not correcting falsified information given by bots, withdrawing money from users accounts, and not providing the service in which was intended, falsifying reality to our young and all the while the ones employed there don't allow thier children on thier own sites...it is Technologically abusive.
Taking advantage of humans, using their weaknesses, depriving users of personal accounts approx 10 days due to a lack of adequate staff. Humans using Robots to do thier dirty work to other humans. In some cases, tech giants are collecting money from accounts that they know the user has not used. They monitize and can see and hear you at all times ..they are taking your money the robots will then take blame.

Not only have I had to deal with the realism of a pandemic, but being left with no cell service or computer for 10 straight months, after enduring physical, psycological, emotional and mental abuse. I get back to civilization to realize the worst is just beginning as now i am being "technoligically abused and I actually think technological abuse is the worst form of abuse yet! How are we enforcing ZERO TOLERANCE CYBER BULLYING ? Whomever surfs the net is contradicting thier anti bullying belief, because we are ALL actually supporting it! Algarithyms are corporate giant bullies.

When you play the most amazing game of Escape From Bitches and you use a sight like the PSO and align the lines on the scope to the size of the person to get the right drop off without adjusting your scope. Very innovative technology.

When you just get the "newest" or "latest" technology and then you see that the even newer version is to come out soon. And you mad.
Ryan Keith Sams-hite acquired the newest galaxy right before seeing an ad for the iPhone 6 causing him to contract the latest technology blues.

A severe technological/informational overload that, over time, defocuses and numbs individuals such that they fail to close communication loops effectively and/or efficiently and, eventually, in acute cases, fail to respond at all.
The ding-dongs at Time Warner Cable are suffering from Acute Technological ADD. No matter what happens, they never get it right, and they rarely call me back.
