You miss the point.

Remote working is in the same vein as offshoring. One enables the other, they're co-dependent. Both are based on greed. In the case of remote working, is avoiding having offices, avoiding paying certain kinds of insurance, etc.

You are also re-inforcing my original conclusion that what enables these workers is the very same tech that companies are investing on.

Again, greed meets greed.

Now it's too late. IT companies will not survive a full return to office, and they won't survive remote working as well.

The very idea that someone could be using technology to fake an identity was unthinkable. Now that it is not, there's really no place safe.

If a crisis occours, and the US president goes to Air Force 1, transmits from there, how could you be sure he's not a north korean infiltrator? You can't.

I think there are still ways out of this, but we're reaching an inflection point that will be hard to overcome.

Your commentary seems to provide a valid point of view, and although you disagree, you reinforce my main point.

No, they're not.

We should get rid of electricity, then.

Now you're really reaching.
