Default What would happen if the internet suddenly collapsed/stopped working?

Would there be mass hysteria on the streets worldwide or would we all take it in our stride?

Just wondering.

I would be extremely pissed off. Life would be very boring without it.

Most people in the world do not use the Internet so they would be totally unphased.

Only Internet junkies would be sobbing hysterically.

Nothing at all would happen.

Everyone would be sat in front of their computer trying to connect to the Internet so that they could find out what was going on.

Oh yeah, and people who work in offices would get some work done for a change.

It cant happen. There's too many servers set up in too many places. The electricity would have to be cut off for that to happen.


And, again, that cant happen either. We would just rediscover it
