At present, it is difficult to imagine a World without Internet. If it was suddenly switched off, it could mean a crisis in many sectors of the economy, where the Internet is the basic information medium and / or the environment for conducting transactions and electronic payments, and is the environment for offering various online information services. Is it possible to accurately diagnose the potential effects of a situation where the Internet stops working? If the Internet stopped working, could it lead to an economic crisis?

Paul: We actually had an economy before the internet. Older people will remember. Ask your parents or grandparents.

Indeed, the economy will be affected because many businesses are based on the Internet.
I agree with the above opinions that if there was a permanent, multi-day global failure of the Internet today, it could cause a serious crisis not only in the field of economics. If not only in the field of economics, then mainly in what areas of people's lives, in which areas of the economy would the most serious crises occur?

Generally, people can find to adapt it quickly by alternative means. It would be fine if close distance connections would still work.
