    It's only business. Obviously, our product works for your business, but it's really good making money for our business. We are work hard at work to support you working at home.

    Note to aa, sed: video call is still electronics, not exactly OT.

    Look at the contraction of their market capitalization-almost as bad as the hapless Peloton:

    "Growth has slowed sharply since the pandemic. Earlier this year, it announced it was cutting 15% of its staff and top executives would take major pay cuts.
    Its shares are worth about $68 apiece today, down from more than $500 at the peak in October 2020."

    On the upside, the richest family in South America doubled their wealth (shipping):

    Brainstorming and design reviews and everyday engineering interaction
    work vastly better in person. The whiteboard is one great technology
    advance of the 2nd millenium.

    And email works much better than the Zoom or Slack toys.
