Audio Answer
Many Jews today exhibit weak faith, easily swayed from Hashem by doubts and trusting technology or human leaders more than God. This critical lack of Emunah and Bitachon, particularly in Divine Providence, is dangerous; relying on anything but Hashem removes His support. While modern technology isn't new wisdom, Hashem provided tools like the internet for unparalleled Torah access and connection, yet these are often misused against faith. Ultimately, unwavering trust in Hashem's complete control over all life is fundamental, bringing His blessings, whereas self-reliance forfeits His vital assistance.
