I know the obvious answers.. we would have no internet, ha.. but it really seems to be picking up.

What else would this affect?
Wanna know for real? No banking, no tickets, no warehousing, etc. All the info now is thin clients, data in servers, web transactions.
No water, prolly no electricity, too, because those are controlled over web systems.
Media blackout is just a tiny byproduct of cancelled net.
I’m not positive, but I think most utilities have a manual backup setting to bypass technology. My town’s water system only uses the internet for automatic notifications, not automatic operation.
