I have to say cool idea, but realistically if you are not using a apple or other locked down device you device will function without internet, and somebody will be able to create mesh nets or sneaker nets, and those will replace the internet (or are actually already in use right now) and those are so redundant, that as long as there isn't a solar storm that hard that it literally short circuits all technology, even in some in that case not good enough faradray cages, we will be able to recover pretty fast after the initial panic
One of the side effects that I think might happen is that we could have local internet be more important than it was before since they would have to build the mesh networks within a community and with various standards which I think would be a good thing in the long run.
One half of the post is prepper mentality and the other is the rant about good old times.
The world changes forever, and no amount of throwing back will get you where the world has been. And no, Internet isn't going anywhere, it's not a singular clearly defined entity, but rather a giant decentralized system.
