There was a desire for globalization, people to people connection and one world fantasy that a whole generation was brought up on that early tech companies leveraged.
But a lot of this is coming from the post 60-70 generation and events have completely discredited the idea of globalism.
Nation states, politics and parochialism is as alive and kicking and far from uniting people our companies are just a way to exercise unilateral power and further national interests.
No county can afford to be dependent on others for food, it's always used against them. It's the same for technology, both software and hardware and this will lead to a more divided splintered world and limit US opportunities but also increase local opportunities.
Until globalism is a social and political reality based on mutual respect and humanity and not exploitation and capitalism this can't change.
