Heidegger upholds technology to be :
Answer: C
Heidegger treats technology as a revelation of beings.
In The Question Concerning Technology (1954), Heidegger argues that the essence of technology is nothing technological: it is a mode of revealing (aletheia). Modern technology reveals beings as 'standing-reserve', resources to be ordered, under the 'enframing' (Gestell).
He explicitly rejects the 'instrumental and anthropological' definition of technology as a human activity or a means, so 'a human behavior', 'an act of manipulation' and 'a useful gadget' are the views he sets aside.
