This was my statement:

"You have to submit to the technology and instead of fighting against its functions try to adapt yourself ... "

Then somebody corrected a part of my sentence to " . . submit to technology".

I would like to know why "the" is not needed here?

I just followed my ears writing it that way.

It's clear when you understand what you place the definite article there for.

If you are speaking about technology in general, any kind of technology, not some specific or defined technology, then you don't need the definite article the. On the other hand if you refer to some specific or defined technology, one that was mentioned ealier or one that is known from the context, then you should place the definite article there.
