Only, we won't be going back to the stone age. Ever. Even if the tech is wiped out.
We know all this stuff is possible and it is unlikely that everyone that knows something will die, just as it is unlikely that all print resources will be taken away.
Cars and cell phone towers will still likely exist. Televisions, radios, computers. The remains of power plants will stand.
We'll continue to wash our hands after shitting because we won't lose germ theory.
Sorry, but there is no going back to the stone age. At worst, the tech of today becomes the goal of humanity after our numbers rebuild.
