Here's my prediction after such a theoretical event...

Governments and businesses would say Please be patient we are working on technical difficulties your Internet will be up soon.

After that excuse stops being believed, whoever did it will become known as a problem and will be solved in some way, and the same for anyone else who takes their job next.

People would not accept it, period. Not for any reason less than a real never-ending war outside their house with gun fire and blood on the sidewalk. Talk about theoretical terrorists wouldn't be enough to get people to allow Internet to be shut off.

Not going to happen. Governments know this. That's why they pussyfoot around with these gradual regulations.

That pussyfooting is going to get noticed and people will see where they're tip-toeing toward and react the same. Would be best not to walk in that direction with our global resources.

NA Ncsoft will be effect by this yet? because i heard internet kill switch will be on next month

Facts about forum...
Someone will correct you over a trivial grammatical error,and it's usually because they're not intelligent enough to actually come up with a smart argument.
All the class are overpowered except the one you using.
when games never change , gamer replies "same stuff over and over again"
when games change , gamer replies " where is my old stuff,this new @rap is boring"

Well first the stock market would crash. Businesses that depend on the internet will fail (everyone in the MMo and IT industry...)

after that massive lay offs from those companies. Global depression hits the most developed/advanced nations the hardes (they depend on the internet the most. Villigers in africa don't use the internet as much lol)

But eventrually the entire world would fell the effects within a few months. Contries that need food imports will have riots due to food shortages. Eventrually the most desperate countries will take military action and invade other contries.

NOTE this senario is extreamly likely if the internet is out for more than a month. Since it is odd that only the internet specifically is destroyed, it is likely that other communication would be down also.

The would would not end, and Nerds will not pick up guns and fight... lol

Anything can happen, we're floating in an universe. If that is a reality anything can happen. That said this is not a B&S subject so moving to off-topic. I'll just watch.

Economy would collapse, even a few days would take a year or more to recover from.
I suppose we will see a lot of political conflict when we look in to how the internet stopped working, if this didn't follow a natural event.
And even if it did follow such an event people would look in to why there wasn't enough redundancy.
Jobs will be lost, and people will get bored in the end.

people would complain for awhile have some withdrawal symptoms then life would go on.
only this latest generation have never lived without the internet.

i can do without the internet (porn would be a problem)
hell, i can live with a cellphone, it would be great to go back to the days when no one can find you after you leave the house
