Nicholas Thompson, editor-in-chief of WIRED, provides his perspective on technology in the age of the coronavirus pandemic:

Will an extended pandemic make the already vulnerable movie theater industry defunct?

It is going to hurt the movie industry. It is going to hurt every industry. It will put a lot of movie theaters out of business because for at least the next few months, very few people are going to go. On the other hand, I do think we will get over this. And I do think once we are over it, people will start to go back. So, it will be a moment of serious transition, and then I hope recovery.
