While a lot of things you note use the Internet for ease, true emergency services have backup plans in place. In addition, it says Net will be paused. This doesn’t mean GPS satellites, cell networks, or other radio based comms. It may specifically mean the internet. Many comm capabilities can function without the internet (like old GPS devices that had no internet connection, but used preloaded maps).
This I don't understand, so many things 911 call centers, medical stuff, police all depend on the network.....

Just a few thoughts.
