In a hypothetical scenario, what would happen to the world if the true creators of the internet were to knock it out completely and for whatever reason the world wide web was made impossible for ten years.
Local area networks would be possible, but for whatever reason the old methods of long distance transmission fail.
1. What happens to /pol/
2. Where do you go/what do you do?
3. What happens do culture?
4. End of mankind happening?
5. Nuclear family reboot?
6. etc
A decade is long enough that there would be a new generation raised without any internet.
government would get taken out without the memes flowing in

Nothing. The net is already fragmented by language which usually indexes by country.
Russia, China, the UK, and several European countries pretty much have their own internet already, and in fact do have backup facilities if the US ever tries to do something retarded like a "killswitch."
>>76702288
That's disappointing.
>>76701302
war about building it back
>>76701302
No internet = no government mind control (not counting the tv, newspaper, etc.) = red pills fucking everywhere
>>76701302
It would be the best decade ever. I welcome the demise of the internet.
>>76701302
where do I get all my porn?
>>76703451
>not having an emergency stash when the internet goes down
All that built up testosterone and sex drive may end up getting you laid.
>>76703451
find a libertarian merchant who was waiting for decades to turn porn into a currency.
>>76701302
Nothing, the Internet is a network of networks. You can't just "knock it out". If you disable mayor parts of it, you won't be able to get i.e Australian websites for a while, but your local network will still be there.

How do you get the redpills to the people if not by internet?
>>76703563
>All that built up testosterone and sex drive may end up getting you laid. Test feels like a drug when it builds up. I notice minor physiological differences at the gym as well.
>>76703635
Thats why I used a clause of basically "somehow". I am asking a hypothetical, pretending that CERN rigged the net to break via a killswitch. The idea is a decade without the internet, not how it could happen.
>>76703778
Without the internet where would people get the bluepills?
>>76701302
>no internet for 10 years
I know what I'm doing
Social groups continually spouting the same shit over and over again.

Whats with the iron cross tattoo?
>>76701302
i would go back to literal shitposting on bathroom walls i guess.

Him but works either way.
>>76701302
Memes must flow.
>>76703968
Newspapers, television, educational facilities.
This time without comment sections which people read and get a dose of counter arguments in.
>>76704147
>Whats with the iron cross tattoo?
I guess they are using it to define the 4 pillars of liberarianism.

>This time without comment sections which people read and get a dose of counter arguments in.
This is true. I literally forgot they existed.
Imagine the amplitude of redpilled papers however being released. Suddenly /pol/ unanimously sees an "untapped market" and everyone releases a paper with a pepe variant logo.
>>76704486
Not likely to work. It's super easy to have a blog running and red pilling people and it's easier still to comment on articles.
But once you publish a print medium you're far easier to control. Your livelyhood depends on your success. That makes it very easy for government and organizations to shut you down. With laws or pressure.
It also means that your real name is always connected to your red pills.
That makes journalists think twice whether they want to jeopardize their careers on spouting "bigoted" stuff.
This is the reason governments are pushing the 'harmful internet troll' meme so much.

my 8 TB of porn will be worth more

as long as my gf immigrates before then, I literally don't give a flying fuck
>>76701302
It's pretty much impossible
It would be easier to just shut off electricity generating plants before you can shut down the internet

what if there was a tcp virus
We can beat our stupid women and children without the internet finding out
>>76703635
This, holy shit this whole fucking thread is like listening to my normalfag relatives talk about technology. The internet is not centralized and that's the point. The closet thing to a "heart" of the net is the root DNS servers, and you could destroy all of them, but there's nothing stopping someone from setting more up.
Even then, it's not like you can't reach another network without a DNS server. You'd have to take out global ISP router clusters to actually do any severe damage. And even then, plenty exist. The net is redundant as fuck, just as it was designed to be.
