Is Technology affecting us????

The answer is Yes for some while No for others.  Though it is good at individual level as they get a wider and more developed atmosphere which acts as a base for their further rapid development.  But it also has certain bad effects as well. The Indian students who go abroad for their studies have to face hard times adjusting among them. Initially they confine themselves to the Indian masses and if thing go well then they can mingle with the entire college easily.
Recently there were attacks on Indian students in Australia and it was condemned all over the world. But if we look from their point of view then, Australia had been an isolated country not rigorously involving in world issues. They have less population, better jobs and a pampered lifestyle.  But the population of Indians there increased many folds and they were preferred for jobs over Indians which resulted in rage against Indians.
Although freedom of movement is often recognized as a civil right, the freedom only applies to movement within national borders: it may be guaranteed by the constitution or by human rights legislation.  Additionally, this freedom is often limited to citizens and excludes others.  No state currently allows full freedom of movement across its borders, and international human rights treaties do not confer a general right to enter another state.  According to Article 13 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, “Everyone has the right to leave or enter a country, along with movement within it (Internal Migration). Some argue that the freedom of movement both within and between countries is a basic human right, and that the Restrictive Immigration Policies, typical of nation-states, violate this human right of freedom of movement.[ Such arguments are common among anti-state ideologies like anarchism and libertarianism. As philosopher and "Open Borders" activist Jacob Appel has written, "Treating human beings differently, simply because they were born on the opposite side of a national boundary, is hard to justify under any mainstream philosophical, religious or ethical theory.
