Rollback technology to 1980s levels?
1. To support old people:
Help desk's will not assume the customer uses an email address or can access a website.
Banks will reopen on the high street rather than making you use an app on your smart phone.
Self-service checkouts will be removed entirely from shops (but see 5), and transactions will become human centred agin.
2. Layers of middle management will be re-introduced into companies after it is recognised that google sheets and google docs do not capture an organisations tacit knowledge, and that middle managers were worth the wisdom of their years.
3. Software development will revert to good old waterfall model and all agile development approaches will be thrown out as rubbish because they encode unconsious bias and because agile is shown to be part of a plot where software engineers get rid of project managers who know nothing about linux. Stakeholder documents & Requirements documents will fill shelves and be ignored again by the coders.
4. It will become easy to set up an account on the UK HMRC/Government portal.

5. Crypto currency will replace fiat currency in all Marks & Spencer outlets. Old folk will be left wandering around the store wondering how as well as where to pay.
