"تفاوت بین فناوری و بردگی این است که بردگان کاملاً آگاه هستند که آزاد نیستند"

Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, people become so dependent on technology that they don't realize how much it controls their lives. Unlike slaves, who know they're not free, people often don’t see how technology limits their freedom. For example, think about how many hours a day people spend on their phones. They might want to do other things, like talk to family or go for a walk, but they can't stop checking their screens. This means they are not really free to choose how they spend their time. To be more aware and take control, people can set limits on their tech use and make time for other activities they enjoy. This way, technology becomes a tool they use, not something that controls them.
