The concerning outcome of the ongoing dependence on the Internet has been discussed by many concerned writers, specifically Nicholas Carr who wrote the article “Is Google Making Us Stupid?” published in The Atlantic.

His fingers lightly tapped against his thigh, and his brow furrowed in thought. The woman had definitely made him curious, and his initial inclination was to think that it was some kind of trap.
