According to prophecy, the future is going to be void of technology. Those who
make it through Tribulation and the Chastisement and enter God's new time, the Era
of Peace. This period of time, it maybe literally a millennium, God is going to renew
the entire earth. I shared this quote on another thread, given to a Latin American seer.

...Beloved, the sun hides, in its place its heat draws nearer to man, it will damage not only advancements that man has accomplished, but will remind
him of his ancient customs to which he will return....

Reading an article today confirms prophecy, why we are going to a simpler time, a
glorious time, the Era of Peace. After Tribulation and the Chastisement. God is not
going to allow evil any longer, we are at the end of this time of evil.

"Mike Daisey's eyes were opened when, posing as a businessman, he traveled to the Chinese industrial zone of Shenzhen and interviewed hundreds of
workers outside the gates of the secretive Foxconn Technology Group, the world's largest electronics contract manufacturer.
A string of suicides at the heavily regimented factories have drawn attention to conditions faced by workers inside. Apple, Dell and
Hewlett-Packard have all announced intentions to look into Foxconn's working conditions.
Daisey isn't holding his breath. Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak saw the monologue and apparently cried, but Daisey says Apple hasn't changed its
practices. And Daisey says that Tim Cook, Jobs' hand-picked successor, is part of the problem. "Tim Cook is personally responsible for the deals
with Foxconn and the way things are set up today," he says.
Having to confront how his beloved devices are assembled has profoundly changed Daisey, who, simply as a way to relax, used to strip his MacBook Pro
down to its 43 component parts and then reassemble it.
"It ruined my hobby," says Daisey. "It died the way that things we love often die: We still go through the motions, but fundamentally the
connection is not what it was. And so I don't take the pleasure that I used to from my devices at all."
To those who argue that improving conditions for workers will only jack up the costs of our phones and tablets, Daisey shakes his head. "The labor
cost of an iPhone is about $8," he says. "Eight dollars! We do this thing to ourselves where we make excuses for why we don't do anything, why we
don't hold anyone accountable."...
