I personally feel this virus was created on purpose to disrupt the world economy. Its just too suspicious to me.
Yes, it's both technically and politically implausible.
In the longer run, at large scale, the economical outcome may well go into positive territory. The situation forces corporations to use technology to work in new ways. Just think about the resources wasted every day by commuters spending hours in traffic to do work they could have done from home. Now, working from home isn't for everybody, but that's fine. Even if just those who easily can do it, work a day or two from home every week, it would have a huge impact. One car staying at home quickly means two fewer cars on the road since those who need to travel will get there faster. When all this is over, new habits might get established. At the very least it gets more acceptable to work from home if you have a cold, which makes sense in every way and will keep everybody healthier.
Now, having been in the videoconferencing industry for more than 20 years I'm hugely biased. It's also a situation we're not prepared for. It's pretty insane. It puts a lot of stress on network and cloud infrastructure, and the quality people now are experiencing is not how it's supposed to be, and it can give the wrong impression.
It's worth revisiting what Arthur C Clark said nearly 60 years ago.
