Question is in the title.

Gotta wonder with all physical media being destroyed / rendered obsolete --- say "The corporate overlords" or w/e wanted a "No internet" policy..... Could they actually accomplish it?

(I genuinely have no idea but certain apps are banned in countries so I lean towards yes)

OR is it a 'genie is out of the bottle' type of deal.

I dont think this is quite what the tech forum is lookin for but move it there if fit.
 
Why would be to remove the information and complacency.

Most ppl dont know shite now days they just run a google (or a.i now maybe idk) --- bother to memorize phone #'s --- own books ----- now video games it seems.

Why is less the point than COULD THEY if they wanted to
 
So you do not know either? Lets say "the government" they are good enough but still irrelevant to the question of "Could it be done"
 
the internet is decentralized. it’s tens of thousands of independent networks run by different companies and governments, connected in many redundant ways.

if one path breaks, traffic routes around it. even the most 'central' pieces, like the dns root servers, are run by separate organizations with many copies of the servers worldwide.

that doesn't mean you couldn't seriously disrupt parts of it.

alasdair
 
When the average person started using the Internet with desktop pc's to book holidays,chat to women describing removing their underwear etc my journey man at the time was constantly scratching his head how so much information could be sent ,processed, recieved etc in just 2 thin copper wires
I'm still scratching my head 😅
 
Storms that cause power cuts cause huge losses not necessarily on the comm side but a home router still needs plugged into a wall
So with governments not tackling global warming ?
 
Land lines I belive are being cut in the next few weeks in uk ,so if your phone isn't directly fed from your router it will no longer work [I assume ]
In the olden days when there was a power cut at least you still had your rotary phone fed from a separate service line you could use in an emergency,
Now some poor old lady might have to walk miles to her closest neighbour to borrow her mobile /cell phone
 
I don't think Technology is something you can stop or ignore ,it just happens
You can't pick and choose which bits are morally right and which aren't
They are just there together
Even the most righteous luddite would surely give in if they had a sick child
I hope
 
I want you to be perfectly aware that the lack of walking causes chronic disease. Cars even cause chronic disease.

All the experts on the panel agree that the rates of chronic disease are rising since the 1960's.

The idiocy of technology has been going on for a long time. Only one thing is strong enough to reverse the trend of disease ridden, ignorant, fools.

I dont even have a phone. When i have a doctors appointment i just use my mom's or brothers. Fuck technology imo
 
They made me have a phone. I will make them pay for that in time. I call them stupid phones.
Technology is bad for the kids. Obviously a GPS decreases learning if you just follow it. Now apply this to everything.

 
Only those chosen will have the mark of the native American dream quest on (in) their heads.
They will not have the mark in their hands.
 
It is possible to separate from technological, unregistered fear driven slaves of technology.

Diseased fools witness:

"That which has solidified will never win"

Deeper than technology, the son of man rejects darkness mankind's cowardly manifestation in development.

Fear driven darkness muscle is a good example but there are many more psychological problems that do not trust in the God of innocence.
