    No mobile broadband, wireless, fiber... total data blackout! Would you go outside, stay in, sleep for the whole 24h maybe? πŸ˜‚ Would you freak out or be happy to get a break from the digital world? What kind of impact do you think it would have on your business, work and personal life?

    Without the internet for 24 hours, I'd seize the opportunity to reconnect with nature, perhaps through a long hike or a day at the beach. It's a refreshing reminder of the world beyond our screens.

    Check in on all those books sitting by the shelf - Else, I think this will have a major impact worldwide, specifically economically - I'll probably eat out since I have an electric stove lol so yeah, I'll take my dog, a book and head out.

    @rihab_zd I do think that more people would be outdoors if that happened. What if it's raining heavily though? πŸ˜…

    I would read books and receive information, I am a person who cannot live without information.

    Now I'd just play music on my old iPod or even play the guitar. But I'm guilty... in the past whenever I've had 30 minutes of no internet I've played some offline mobile gamesπŸ˜‚

    @simona_o_neill3 I'm into horror and fantasy stories :D There's a series of H. P. Lovecraft stories illustrated by François Baranger. I've been craving to read them with his art, but they're still in their protective film...

    @burmistrov Wow! Super cool. Well, it's time for that protective film to go so πŸ˜‚

    I wouldn't be able to do anything, I always need access to the Internet, so I always recommend best broadband speed test here https://www.uctel.co.uk/blog/the... . So that the Internet remains normal and without problems.

    Without Internet I'm jobless, so I would spend the day cooking, walking, and doing some real world things instead of being all the time in front of my screen

    I think it will be amazing. No stress, no worries. I'll sleep, eat, read and do some sport. Recently, I started to enjoy flying on airplanes without internet connection, because I fell more relaxed, don you have this feeling?

    @boris_moris44 Yes absolutely! I really do think that too. Although, I wouldn't be able to do what I do now. I think a good balance is a must! :-)

    Since my job depends on the internet, I'd get some free time to relax and recharge! I don't think that my work would be seriously damaged by one day off, but I'd get more time to share with loved ones. Although, it kinda depends on what day. It would be really inconvenient to get power off tomorrow, since we are launching tomorrow πŸ˜‚

    @michaelshver Awm cool! Big day tomorrow so πŸ‘πŸ€©! Yes that would be really bad news to get just before your launch πŸ˜…And yes I do think that without the internet we are better versions of ourselves. I am always on my laptop or my phone and I do know that I’d be a much better mom if I wasn’t in my online world as much. πŸ₯Ί

    If there were no internet for 24 hours, I'd probably spend the time catching up on reading some physical books or doing some offline writing. It might also be a good opportunity to go for a long walk or engage in some other outdoor activities. Disconnecting from the digital world for a while can be refreshing and allow for some much-needed relaxation and reflection.

    That would be a great day!) I don't suffer without the internet at all, a chance to live without the information noise. I would go hunting and spend time alone with nature and my dog.

    @max_yurevich_itmh Hunting? Cool, what do you normally hunt? I have two hunting type dogs - Golden Retriever and Cocker Spaniel :-)
    Maxim Yurevich
    @simona_o_neill3 I usually go bird hunting with my favorite dog. German Shorthaired Pointer. We hunt all kinds of game, but bird is our priority. The dog works out perfectly and the hunt is extremely romantic and beautiful!

    If there is no internet for 24h, then I will go out with my friends(or gf) :). Walking along the street, have some funny chat.... anyway I will do everything that cannot do perfectly on internet.
