I'm skeptical. Not just of this article but really of anything written in this moment that talks about how The Way Things Will Be.
We're thick in the middle of a pandemic right now. It will subside. No one knows exactly what waits for us on the other side, or what the societal impacts will be. Yes, we're all working remotely right now. But it's been an incredibly slap-dash, thrown together effort for many companies and that might mean they become less receptive to remote work in the future, not more. We don't really have any data on what the economic impact of remote work is (separate from all the other economic impacts swirling around us right now), and until we do I'm going to hold off making too many wild predictions.

- untog 6y agoWell, sure. I wasn't intending to imply that the entire population of the globe is working remotely.
