Cellphone Boon or Bane??

When it comes for misuse of Cellphone India will Top the charts!! I have no doubts in that. Here people use it to take pictures of others without their permission. Videos are taken and spread via websites. In the Western countries the Cellphones are used sparingly, you'll never see some one yelling over the phone in a public place, you will never come across some one wedded to his earphones while driving his bike.
The cellphones have taken toll on the phone ethics too! Earlier people used to greet while picking up the call, convey the purpose of call and disconnect the call. Since the call rates too low people have started spending more time over the phone than necessary! When introduced the cellphones were considered as a boon, due to the extensive usage it has turned out to be a bane!
If a person is angry about someone he immediately calls up and starts a heated argument over the phone, it worsens the situation. Whereas if this technology was not available he might not be in the state of mind if he meets in person.
Cellphones were killing people indirectly, you would have heard of a person getting killed cause of using cellphone while driving, while crossing the road etc etc... There were also instances where people committed suicide since their video was published in websites
Of late Cell phones have started killing people directly we are often hearing cell phone explosions and people getting killed.
How do we stay safe?
Go for Branded mobiles
Do not speak while charging
If you are replacing the charger or a battery, go only for branded spares
On top of all, avoid extensive usage!
I wish the newspapers do provide the details exploded mobile like model and brand, it will make both the consumers and the concerned brand more cautious and will help to avoid such accidents!
