Sure hope everyone has secure WiFi (ie not using the factory default p/w), VPN, and up to date security protocols. Just sayin’!

The world is changing forever. Many businesses will not go back.

Very nice, no commute ,could sleep and rest more at home . Hope it keeps longer .

If you look back in 2019 when Hong Kong had protests. Also, all they would say was that the government wasn't listening but the pictures shows them wearing masks & their stocks were going down- Perhaps it was COVID-19 they were hiding. We should cremate.
