> I'm pretty sure if we all suddenly went offline, half the internet would seem to keep going as usual.

That could be a good Black Mirror like scifi movie, everyone dies but chatter and social media just keep living on.

"Did you guys see that amazing sunset last night? Check out this book to capture these amazing moments!"

"Can't wait to see the new [dystopian movie] this weekend!"

"Amazing shows to see this weekend. Download our event app to log on and find the fun!"

"The [other party] are a it again today... protests should be intense today at the capitol."

... no one there ...
