Where would society be without the internet?

[gabmen]

i will connect it to love. hahaha without internet in love. in long distance relationship it will become hard again. with internet even they far from each other they can contact everyday. the other side  without internet boy can court girl using love letter. unlike now lot of teenager become bf gf juat using text or chat while courting:)

Lol. Hadn't thought about it like that though and it's another way to look at how the internet has influenced today's generation. Gone are the days when a guy would put in a lot.of effort without even getting to hold a girl's hand. ;p

A society without the Internet will communicate more with people and engage in many interesting activities for which they did not have enough time because of the Internet. Sometimes it is useful to spend time without the Internet.

[leexhin]

Your guess?

Probably people will be more sociable because they will not be using their phone from time to time. People will talk more with their friends and family. Human relationship would be better. People will have more time with their love ones and people will be more engaging. They would have more time to appreciate what's happening around them.

Either they will be out or on a vacation or maybe they will just be home chilling and watching TV like a couple of years ago. If you are not that old enough then I'm sure you still remember your childhood where you get to play outside with your neighbors and teenagers would just be at home or our elders would have like a movie night or hangout on someone's place or overnight and watch a movie or something.

I cant do anything without an internet.

Yes, mamy of us now depend of internet. Jobs and acitvities somehow would be slower.

Without the internet, society would be where governments still are today. In the bloody stone-ages. Bureaucracy and politics are such sad little shit-shows that I am almost shocked to know that they exist in the same time as the rest of the world.

[siti25]

Your guess?

Maybe we will have a higher social sense, maybe we will have more "real" friends. Most of us today have more internet friends than real friends. Maybe we will get slower to get information all over the world, but I feel life will be better without internet.

Yes I agree with you.  We will have real friends.  Not friends on facebook and friends on ig or friends anywhere.  True friends like before.  As to getting information, I do not think that it would be slow, yes slow but our parents done that before.  And they teach them patience.  Not all what we searched on the internet are true.

everything has its flaws, and what kind of things we can maximize it, but it seems that if we do not have internet access we will better understand how our ancestral way system communicates

Here in India, there is a district called Darjeeling. The government has banned internet there for more than a month now, and people are facing extreme hardships because of that. A lot of people are traveling up to 100 km, just to check their emails and bank account details. The internet ban was imposed by the chief minister of the West Bengal state (Momta Bonerjee), who is popularly known as the Kim Jong Un of India.

Why ban the Internet there?

Well, that was tough for the people of that district. I can't imagine the situation of people in which Internet became part of their lives.

It is quite tough and the people are facing a lot of difficulties. I personally can't stay away from internet for more than 2-3 days. If I can't connect to the net for more than that, then I'll go crazy. The reason for the ban was that the inhabitants of that district refused to comply with her orders to make Bengali language as a compulsory subject.

I guess that the relationship between people will be better but working and studying will be harder

Remember the books? you are right about the improvement of human relationships, but studying will be the same there are books or better yet people who can answer your question.

[Lieldoryn]

I'm not a teenager and I remember times when there was no Internet. Now it seems impossible, but life existed then. Each time has its own charm. At the present time everything is happening much faster than before. The Internet has made our lives faster and more colorful. I don't miss about the past.

[durorfeet]

I think relations will last longer, right?

[iv4n]

Without internet we wouldn't be here, that is for sure. And technology wouldn't make this kind of progress. Without internet we wouldn't know so much about the world outside our neighborhood, this kind of information circulation wouldn't be possible.
Without internet society would go down, because powerful governments are trying to limit our knowledge, and internet can help a man to better understand situation, examples are wars around the world.
And without internet life would be boring for many of us here.

[Charot12345]

I think it depends,  if there is no internet to start with, or if there's sudden stop of using internet. If there is no internet the people will be more sociable, not lazy, the kids are playing outdoor games with their friends,  people spend more time with their family and have more true friends.
In sudden stop of using internet, it will be hard to adjust and boring because we got intertainment in using internet.

That also would be a bad thing if done too much. We tend to neglect talking tonthise people around us. Funny that as the ibternet makes communication easier for thise that are far from each other, it makes you neglect those in front of you. Probably without the internet people would still find time even though how hard it is to reach out. Communucating face to face would mean a lot more.

[Zinkin]

The society you say? You're just considering all the millennial and their 'social media attachment issue'.

If 'internet' never would've invented then probably we're still using mails (literally) and telephones, if you're just around the neighbourhood. And we probably wouldn't advanced this far in technology, because of limitations in communications. And maybe some of us are still isolated to those people who're more advanced and civilized than us.

I don't know probably my sexual life would be better

Internet as reduce the stress of people and make our time more valuable n fast.

In the modern world, with the help of the Internet, you can learn a lot of useful information and earn money, but you need to monitor the time spent on the Internet so as not to harm the body.
