Mental Fatigue Caused by Unreliability in Technology

Modern technology, once a beacon of progress, now overwhelms users with mental fatigue due to its high rate of defective hardware and software issues. Unlike the robust technology of the past, where devices boasted excellent hardware quality, low return rates, and near-eternal lifespans—many old phones and computers still function today—modern devices often fail prematurely or become obsolete, forcing frequent replacements.

Combined with constant bugs, relentless updates, malware, phishing emails, and hacking threats across smartphones, computers, and consoles, this creates a relentless cycle of frustration. The early days of computing and mobile phones offered simpler, largely bug-free devices that required no frequent updates, a stark contrast to today’s tech battleground. Hackers exploit vulnerabilities, malicious emails flood inboxes, and software glitches disrupt daily life, eroding mental well-being.

In the past, a phone or computer worked reliably out of the box. There were no urgent security patches, no invasive malware, and hacking was a rarity. Now, users must navigate a maze of troubleshooting, antivirus software, and forced updates that often introduce new issues. This tech unreliability—fueled by rushed software releases, lax security, and poor hardware durability—leaves users anxious, overwhelmed, and distrustful.

Governments must act to curb this crisis

Laws should mandate:

Bug-free devices: Manufacturers must ensure stable, reliable software before release.

Minimal updates: Only critical security patches should be required, reducing disruption.

Secure internet: ISPs and tech companies must deploy robust defenses against malware, phishing, and hackers.

Durable hardware: Devices must meet stringent quality standards to reduce defects and obsolescence.

By enforcing accountability, governments can restore trust in technology, alleviate mental fatigue, and return devices to their original promise: tools that simplify life, not complicate it.
