Answer to Question 2

Answer: A
Explanation: A) The overuse or misuse of communication technology can lead to information overload, in which people receive more information than they can effectively process. Information overload makes it difficult to discriminate between useful and useless information, lowers productivity, and amplifies employee stress both on the job and at homeeven to the point of causing health and relationship problems. Information overload has nothing to do with fear of technology. Anyone who uses a computer, a smart phone, or other advanced gadget is susceptible to information overload.
