The extent of frustrations and confusion that would ensue during a time of no Internet on the whole continental United States would be astronomical.

The most important things to point out would be the most influential on society, such as Medical facilities, communication networks and government originations.

The inability to use a medical database the Pediatric emergency database, that shares information about medical history and information about diseases and transfers between hospitals and doctors about patient information would come to a halt. Being unable to send this information would be untimely and detrimental to the wellbeing of people.

Having the general population being unable to use the Internet would create a lot of chaos and many usable technological devices would become pointless.

The mere inability to use your e-mail would drive people insane. Phone companies would be over run with calls for a variety of reasons and have to set up emergency plans like a natural disaster. When people in other countries need to do business or contact friends and family within the united states and are unable of to peoples minds will run with negative thoughts, and rumors will start.

The possibility of businesses and relationships suffering because people are unable to contact one another would have long and short-term effects.

Also the government, who is extremely dependent on the use of the Internet of information and communication, would put many states towns and regions into a difficult position. Local news and governments would be leaving people uninformed and scared because of the shock to our Internet addicted way of life.
