The tech industry will feel this if quarantine continues, it'll just be delayed. People here shouldn't fool themselves.

Apple stores are closed. Ad spending will collapse for Google and Facebook. Future financing rounds will dry up. Unless this is a short term quarantine effort, layoffs are coming for tech too.

Yep, I'm on a team that's not a profit center and I fully expect most of my team and I to be laid off at the earliest moment that my employer thinks it won't take a PR hit from doing so. Anyone else feel the same?
