Although there are many IT advantages there are also disadvantages including privacy and lack of job security. First, according to the small business article, there is too much information flowing around that can cause privacy issue; from a cell phone interception to email hacking. People should be worry about their personal information becoming public knowledge. We should be careful about what kind of web site we use or information we are putting out there because there are hacker out there that can hack our information.
Secondly, technology is always changing, therefore, one has to be in a constant learning mode to keep his/her job secure. We are human being so we often get comfortable when we get use to a technology and by changing the techonology it might be a problem for us. If one don't get use to the new technology quick he/she could lose their job. The company could rehired someone who know how to use the new technology. Because of the lack of job security one need to be in a constant learning mode if they wishes to keep their job.
On the bright side some people may see these disadvantages as advantages, having people assigned specifically to constantly protect AND enhance your security leads to more jobs as well as could lead to revenue producing technological inovation, so it's not all bad!

yes! we always look at the advantage side of IT, and ignore disadvantage side of IT, but it is true, some people may see these disadvantages as advantages! So I did more research about the disadvantage, here it is, Implementation Expenses, Job Elimination, Security Breaches. Hope it's good to support your point!
