I'm in two minds to be fair. On the one hand, I think in the modern world going forward, there's going to be a LOT more remote business and politics and it's something we should get used to (like the Jedi Council where they don't have to physically be there and can appear as holograms, I suppose).

On the other hand, I don't think we're QUITE there yet in terms of tech security, and I think governments are currently very vulnerable to technological espionage and manipulation. It's the same reason I wouldn't advocate for tech-based voting systems/vote counting just yet, even though manual vote counting obviously has its own issues.
