It is your mother if the manufacturer programmed it to go off every day at 7.00, even if you don't have school/work.
Your alarm clock goes off because YOU instructed it to. Not because someone else is enforcing their habits and/or rules on you.
"enforcing their rules on you", perhaps a better word than "mother" would be "annoying".
eg. This new technology is "annoying".
Alternatively, you could call it technology that prevents you from doing what you want to do
