Society and reality become real.
Probably people will have more friends, more relations between them and more knowledge...40 years ago we didn't have internet and everything was working good. Airplanes,companies,trading,post office,banks..all. Internet offers you everything just click away. Before if you need some info you needed to search books,go to library,ask somebody..people were more social..
If the internet wasn't invented at all. Business will take time to actually grow. micro businesses would get to their target market slower. Research would be a hassle, and i mean it's a total leg work.sending information to and from a company will take about an hour to get to. But we do value when we actually meet people
It would be exactly as it was BEFORE the WWW was popular.
You HAD to go to the library for any info. You had to look into white/yellow pages books for telephones. You had to ask for information, or order things by telephone.
To communicate, fastest way was by telephone, which was expensive to talk long distance. Or, if you could wait, you could write letters, and send physical photographs by normal mail, which would take weeks or more. If something was urgent and did not have a telephone, you had to send a telegram. Most everything else was done personally by going physically.
And that’s it. The internet has accelerated our communications and the distribution of information. Information did exist, but it was a lot more cumbersome to get at it.

Without internet life is boring. We cannot communicate to other in a fastest way.
We still be learning from books and tales/experiences from our parents.
Your guess?
The world used to be a much better and funner place without the internet. Internet sure has its advantages, but back in the days, people actually take time to gather together and socialize face to face. Unlike today's facebook and other social media where people are content with group chat or video call. It is so ironic how we stay connected together on-line but we literally are alone and feel alone.
Your guess?
It is a very short question but there are many consequences of being without internet. If we have never had internet connection, it may be easy to figure out but we live in technological world and internet is very necessarily for us. If it finishes, there will be of course a chaos and many wars may be happened.
Primitive, and backward society. C'mon let's be real here. Everyone would love it if things went back to peer-to-peer conversations, but sooner or later we would be developing, and there's a price for everything. That's how the human mind works, and how nature balances everything.
We all know that internet helps us in many ways. Technology makes our lives very easy and convenient. But if our world didn't discover internet, I guess we didn't reach what we have right now. Everything that we create has advantages and disadvantages, but it is up to us how will let them affect our lives either in a good way or bad way.
I'm almost pretty sure that we would have found something different to connect to other parts of the world and to spend half of our days spending time on something.
Without internet, society will return back to stone age. The internet has turned the world into a global village where anything happening in any part of the world spreads like wild fire. The internet has eased communication in all facets and ramifications. Withiut the internet, society is doomed

The internet has made my life as a graduate student so much easier. Research takes about a tenth as long as it did when we had to sit in the library and dig books off of shelves. Now I can just look up articles and download the pdf!However I think the internet has also made people nastier in general.
Without internet information about everything will not be quickly get by people. Usually before internet existed , people get information from the news on the television channel and also from newspaper .
Difficult when schools, universities, most workplaces and social life requires you have internet.
Really makes me think society is the problem and we have degenerated so far as to it's citizens have become isolated and subsequent immoral behaviours ensue like pornography and binge eating.
I know these are strong words and everytime i mention this i face hard critique but i am throwing it out there anyways.

i think we could live in a more peaceful place.. appreciating things that was forgotten because of technology..
back to basic many of works will be manual and long process of work and no. 1 there will be no cyber bullying 😁
Your guess?
I think we all will have more friends , more relationship .Our lives will be better, because there are not many addicts and facebook game .
But without the internet, human life would be very slow, because information would be less, more difficult to
communicate with each other and so on.
Well, one thing that we could look at is North korea wherein they do not have any access to inernet. So presumably, our society would be fixated on doing other stuff. This does not necessarily mean that there would be total degression in the current civil status. So same same, but less complicated.
Well it's hard not to be too engaged since most of what we do today revolves around it. He internet has pushed our daily living to another level and though we still can live witbout it, it going to hard for us to adapt back if it is removed
the truth is, we have changed, adapted and we are used the Internet all the time, because without it we will experience a lot of discomfort...this is the same to say - how could we have no running water...we could carry water from the well, but we are too accustomed to the amenitiesJump to:
