What if the Internet shuts down?I
Internet - The word is one of the most importantwords in the world today. At present no one hasinternet connection, it is out of people's thoughts.The current situation has reached such a stage that along with food, clothing and shelter, the "Internet" thing has become like a basic human need. In every moment of life we are using the internet knowingly or unknowingly and taking the help of internet.
But can you imagine what would happen if youwoke up tomorrow morning and saw that theInternet was working somewhere in the worldand that the Internet would never work again? What will your life be like, and what willbe the lifestyle of everyone else in theworld? How can the world be withoutinternet? Can you survive without scrolling through Facebook news feeds? Can yousurvive without eating chicken dinner with friends before going to bed every day? You canread this article, it means you still have theinternet active. But what if someone or something suddenly switches off the Internet?
I know you can argue all day about how helpful and beneficial it can be for our health, our minds and our society to shut down the Internet. Yeah Al that sounds pretty crap to me, Looks like BT aint for me either. Moreover, when the Internet is down, we will discover that we can make phone calls with the help of smartphones. When the Internet is down, we will bring back the old methods of communication. Such as fax machine, telegram machine, wired telephone etc. We will not open our phone's Notes app to keep notes, but will use actual paper and pen.
Oh yes, we also have a television to entertain us. In the last few years, the rate of people watching television has decreased a lot. With the advent of smartphones and the Internet, very few people watch television for entertainment purposes. And nowadays the television device is not turned on by anyone except the elderly people in the house, which means in simple words those who do not use smartphones and internet much, still use television for entertainment. And if the Internet doesn't shut down, people's television viewing rates will continue to decline. And just like that, when the internet is permanently shut down, we will all watch television again.
But the world will not stop without the Internet. Because now more than 4 billion people do not have access to the Internet. So those who do not have access to the Internet, even if the Internet is off, they will not have any problem. So half of the world's people will not be able to notice when the Internet is down. But that is only for a limited time. In a nutshell, the lack of internet will affect more or less every person in the world. But it's not you or me, you-me we'll notice as soon as the internet shuts down. When our favorite website doesn't load, when you try to login to PUBG, you don't login, or when you text your friends on Facebook, it doesn't deliver, then most of your internet addicts like me get frustrated.
Due to the lack of internet, social media users will start making phone calls to each other without being able to text on Messenger. And the first word of each of them will not be "Hello" or "How are you" after receiving the phone call, after receiving the phone, the first word of all of them will be "Are you also not running internet?". Then maybe if you like your friend's new profile picture you can't give a "love" reaction to it and call him and tell him that you like his new profile picture. Wait, no one can use Facebook without internet, uploading profile picture is a long way off!
However, when the Internet is down and people start calling everyone, there will be an incredible pressure on the telecommunication system and as a result bad connections, weak networks, call drop will become very common. Because mobile operators will not be able to make their network so powerful or upgrade in one day. Mobile phone towers can also temporarily stop working or hang as they cannot withstand so much network pressure in a single day. This problem will continue as long as mobile operators are upgrading their networks to withstand this extra network pressure. And if that doesn't happen, it's time to dump her and move on.
And let's not talk about wireless file transfer, because since there will be no WiFi, you will need a wired connection to transfer any file or photo. Since there will be no online media streaming, we need to use DVD drives and discs to watch movies or any photo or video content. Then the DVD drive on the PC will no longer be an unnecessary part.
Let's look at the economy. At present all banks and financial organizations store financial data or account data of all customers on their online servers. So without internet, it would be impossible to store and access or process these data. Internet money transfer will no longer be possible. Your credit and debit cards will become just a useless plastic card. All types of digital money transfer services like bKash, Paypal, Bank Transfer will be stopped.
When the internet is down, you can expect a refund even if the money in your bank account is late. However, if you store cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin in your online wallet, you will definitely never get them back or access them until the internet is restored. However, if you want to get back the money kept in your bank, you will have to suffer a lot.
Since the bank will no longer be able to access any data about you such as how much money was in your account, how much money you deposited, how much money you withdrew, it will be very difficult for you and them to track your account balance. Moreover, when the internet is down, the only way to send money to someone is to physically hand over the money or order money at the post office like in the old days. After all, if the Internet is shut down, the whole economy of the world will change drastically.
Also, the world's largest Internet-based billionaire industries, such as Google, Facebook, Amazon, etc., will be out of business and will not be able to make any more money. Moreover, the employees and staff working in these companies will lose their jobs in a moment. In addition, online based companies and publications or blogs that rely on online advertising to keep their businesses running (e.g. TechTenBD blogs!) Will also be affected when the Internet is shut down. Because, their income will be absolutely zero.
Besides, if the internet is shut down, the transportation system will also be damaged. Airports, train stations, etc. will not be connected to each other unless there is internet. This will make it more difficult to track flights and track trains. Besides, after sending a product from one country to another, it will not be possible to track it online. This will hurt international shipping companies and, above all,
the international transportation system.
However , is it at all possible to shut down the Internet completely? The short answer is no. It is not possible to turn off the Internet completely, or even if it is possible, it is quite a hassle. It is not possible to do so much work by shutting down the internet by mistake or by someone intentionally shutting down the internet. Because the Internet is a global network of computer networks around the world, owned by no one. There is no Internet owner who has the power to shut down the Internet.
However, the governments of some countries have a kill switch on the Internet with the help of which the government of that country can only turn off the Internet of that country. However, no one in the world has the power to shut down the Internet. There is no main machine on the internet. Even if one part of the Internet is shut down, there are thousands of other parts that will remain functional.
So don't worry, the internet will never be permanently shut down. You can use the Internet until your death and most importantly, view Memes online and play PUBG!
