#2 What If Internet Never Existed?

in #internet7 years ago

Imagining life without the Internet is tough but the fact is, 30 years back there was no Internet and the world still existed. The only difference was that the world was slower than it is now.

Let's take a look at things that would have happened if internet did not exist.

  • No Internet means No Google. You would actually have to search for every bit of information in library, a crowded place it would be.
  • Wikipedia would not be existing too, which meant students would have to complete their homework, assignment and projects on their own, which eventually would increase human creativity. Humans perhaps would have been more intelligent.
  • Teenagers would not be busy in Social Media and indulge more in outdoor games. People would have been healthier.
  • There would be no IT industry. Developing nations like India would have to find other substitutes for increasing their developing rates, unlike now, where IT industry is the major source of employment.
  • Amazon and Ebay and other e-commerce companies would still be existing but people would still prefer offline markets.
  • Smartphones Phones would be limited to text messages and multimedia.
  • Magazines and Comic books would be major source of entertaiment.
  • Had there been no Internet, there would have been more severe deforestation than happening now, because then for everything paperwork would have increased causing to huge environmental degradation and who knows going at this rate, hardly any trees would be left for paperwork causing the world to get extinct within the next few decades. I’m doubtful this would have happened. I have no data either way but don’t feel that the Internet saved the trees.
  • There would be a long queue at every place due to the absence of online booking. Be it hotel, restaurants, railways or airports.
  • With no Internet and Social Media, there would be less hatred among people. No one would have to fake their virtual identity. The world would be a slightly more peaceful place to live in.
  • Television, Newspaper, and Radio would be the only source of News.
  • DVDs/BlueRay would cost a lot more.
  • The growth of technologies would be limited.
  • You wouldn't be reading this, If there was no Internet.

Let me know in the comment section what do you all think would have happened if there was no Internet at all. I will add your points with your username.

Interesting. Because there is one day i sit down in a subway and saw everyone are busy wih their phone and i wonder it just few years before we have the iphone (one of the first smart phone at the time) and it just too hard to imagine if we do not have internet at all.
