(Last Updated On: June 15, 2015)Most of us have been born in a world without internet or mobile phones. Obviously, it seemed very normal at that time, and nobody was suffering because of that. People were working, having fun, traveling in a totally different way, but probably not too many of us can say that humans are now happier than they were 50 years ago.

What would we do without internet?

Did you ever think of the major changes that our life would suffer if the internet disappears? Here is just a short list of possible changes; while some of them are thrilling, others are just funny:

• Those who are addicted to social networks will probably commit suicide during the first week without internet, finding no more reasons to live for.
• The companies that are internet - based will collapse and disappear, generating an enormous unemployment wave (I would be part of that, for sure). Most of the former employees will become probably postmen.
• The Smartphones (if they will still be usable) will be used only for phone calls. That sounds very odd, isn’t it?
• Because of the lack of communication, the amount of goods that needs to be produced would be much harder to determine. The internet connection between offer and request will be broken. The production of goods will decrease dramatically.
• The circulation of merchandise would become chaotic and will be unable to cover the needs of most humans. The so-called civilized world will have to return to older technologies in communication, agriculture and data transmission.
• Many people will start to produce their own food, as many stores and hypermarkets will probably disappear. The general state of health might improve, because many humans will perform physical work instead of sitting in front of a computer all day long.
• Many families will be re-united under the same roof and the children will stop spending so much time in front of a screen. Soon they will understand that the best interaction with another human can be obtained only through direct, eye-to-eye contact.

Finally, we will probably start again to read books made of paper instead of searching for digital books over the internet. Not very ecological, but worthy as an experience.
