Personally I would love it. We should try it for a week. It seems everything changed in 2012 and maybe we can go back to 2012 when society wasn't completely fuked.

The damage would be irreparable.


All infrastructure such as hydro-electric dams, inner city traffic control, money, air travel, communication, everything runs on the internet. I mean...


everything. Even seven days would be detrimental to society.

I think.

Yep I personally would be fine but I would have to deal with a completely dysfunctional society magnitudes worse than what we have been dealing with the past two years.

I have plenty of food, cash, and fuel for much longer than that on hand. I would welcome it just to see how badly people depend on the system/Government. I believe it would be a wake up call for many to start being a little more self reliant.

Of course it will be bad as every buisness needs it'

If you just turned off people personal internet so they couldnt go to social media and get brainwashed, people would quickly realize that they are being manipulated.
