I see it more of the pain brought by the advent of remote work. I used to be in favor of it, but this turn of events changed my mind.
I'm still in favor of remote work, but I think those who go to other countries (heck, even other cities) need to be conscious of their impact, make wise choices, and strive to be a positive member of the communities they are immersing themselves in. Governments and law makers can also do their part to minimize the negatives, because like it or not, remote work isn't going away.
