Big Tech just happened to be at the right place at the right time right now. There’s no competence that got them there other than the fact that the entire country is in quarantine and than happens to work out well for companies that can sell to people at home.
Clorox is also doing very well right, but the author doesn’t use that as an example because it’s too clear and obvious that luck is at play there.
Big tech did not foresee this, it just happens to help their businesses, in part because it skews the playing field their way.
