This scenario became reality with the outbreak of the global COVID-19 pandemic: From one day to the next, social distancing measures, stay-at-home mandates, and nationwide lockdowns forced people around the world to remain at home and in many cases having to rely on the internet as their lifeline for work, social life, and entertainment.

This study examines the biggest internet trends which are well-positioned to last beyond the pandemic.
