Hey, this is off-topic.  :)
The magazine called PC mag, one of my favorites, is not published an article about how the Contra virus has put the brakes on the tech industry. Most of it is what you expect them to say, but there are some points that are worth considering. Here is the link:

The article includes some related links you might enjoy.

What's the Contra virus ? ?

I'm not sure but for some reason I think it involves Nicaragua, Iran, and Reagan.
I was trying to dereference Null Pointers before it was cool.

But doesn't the ContraVirus appear to just be a spyware that pretends to be a legit anti-spyware?  ::)

Yea, I am sorry for the confusion.

The corona virus is a human virus discovered in China.
The PC Mag article is about down ward pressure  on the computer industry, which gets a lot of product from China. The production of computers and phones will be down this year.
