>rogue AI cyber attack brings down the internet>major websites all inaccessibleHow would we communicate? through CLI message boards?
ol' reliable
And how would you connect to those CLI message boards, anon?
Piece of paper stuck to a message board?Where I live (Ohio), there's no "town square", but there is a posting board on the side of the courthouse. Certain things (bids for contracts, foreclosures, etc) are required to be "publicly posted". This fulfills that requirement.Newspapers, or at least printed pamphlets/flyers/guides/etc, would probably become popular again.
laser pulses on the moon
>>110200301The "internet" being brought down doesn't have to mean literally everything including the isps being brought down.It could just be cloudflare aws dns and other services. You could still have connectivity in those circumstances. Direct p2p networking could still be possible
>>110200516Yeah but when rogues AI agents can chew through security it's kinda game ogre
Same as we always ever did: IRC.
>>110200624What part of "the internet is down" are you struggling with?
>>110199986smoke signalsmessenger pidgeonscell phonestelegraphradiomailin person (hopefully it doesnt get this bad)
>>110199986Meshtastic or similar
>>110201013No, you can't use messanger because the internet is down. What part of this do you not understand?
>>110199986Question, how do you bring down a decentralised network?
>>110201064fuck up bgp
>>110199986/g/ternet
>>110199986>Internet is down>How would we communicate? through CLI message boards?lol another zoomie who thinks the web is the internet
>>110201066Hmm yeah I'll give you that, but thats a small community and the ASN people usually sort it quickly, when Pakistan jeers up their attempts to block YouTube for example
>>110201078I would assume this would be forced upon them by the government
>>110199986i would unironically rope. I have no friends, no family, i live alone in a small apartment and never leave the house. I have no tv no books or anything at all to occupy my life other than my computer and an internet connection. If the internet was down completely at the isp level and not even my phone can connect to the internet I have absolutely nothing else i can do other than stare a wall. I can't go outside because of deep rooted social anxiety, it would be like solitary confinement except prison would be more stimulating. The internet is all i have don't take it away from me.
>>110199986Meshtastic or MeshCore. I have no one to talk to outside my city.
>>110201075what you think datacentrers and servers are immune? The fuck you gonna do with just wiring and wireless?LMAO
>>110201105well better start setting up a home gym and learning how to write fanfiction and getting used to going to the library
>>110200301smoke signs
>>110199986I take the opportunity to escape from my shithole country to a first world country instead of communicating, if possible
>>110201105>I have no tv no books or anything at allGo and order some before it's too late, are ye daft?
>>110201133no one wants you uzbek
>>110199986a great reset of the internet could turn out to be a good thing. it would be interesting to observe people organizing their isolated little local networks, dodging AI etc.
>>110199986Meshtastic:https://meshtastic.org/You could probably communicate long distances this way with enough effort
>>110201153Not when starlink is hovering in the stratosphere.
>>110201105get a $20 kindle and jailbreak it (or just download an epub reader) and hoard some ebooksI would link this collection but I don't even remember where I got it. might have been from /lit/?
>>110201105I have 48GB of Amiga TOSEC disks to dig through. more than enough to last me two lifetimes.but in this scenario, I will probably be too busy trying to get food though.
>>110199986MeshCore preppers have been prepping for this exact scenario for years. you'd be surprised how much infra is already put in place, all by paranoid schizos. I think I will be getting 2-3 more of these.
>>110199986If internet and go down, it means that the war is coming, pack your backpack and go to the bunker.
>>110199986I guess I will be forced out of my neetcave?I always was curious about local library but I'm not sure if I would fit there. They seems to have fun, lately had collab with local pottery and ceramic club during an open night.
>>110199986>through CLI message boards?How would those not need internet access? You've got a dial up modem lying around? Your phone line, if you still got one, is probably VoIP. Why are you so fucking stupid?
>>110200059Kek
>>110201197> one infected device from OP's scenario joins the mesh> ruins it for everyonenow what?
>undersea cables are downlmao
>>110202405theoretically, you can create private channels. I tried it with mixed results, but it should work (in theory).and if you mean a rogue client could be just shitting up the band, that would be illegal in most places, and feds should take such device down.
>>110199986Store and forward nets such as UUCP, over carriers such as radio or RONJA.
>>110201105Get a /ham/ license and a rig, set up Meshtastic or MeshCore nodes. Enjoy.
>>110199986nice. apple 2e was my first computer, in 1983
>>110200966Facebook going down would not affect IRC.
>>110203102I have an ICOM 9700, it's pretty comfy. On calm nights I've talked all the way to Oceania with it and a simple wire antenna. Digital modes go even farther and are basically like text chat. Would recommend, though the rigs themselves are pricey and 10 meter interferes with my modem and nukes my internet sometimes.
>>110199986The internet was just down for over 2 months in Iran due to the recent ongoings. Government shut the whole thing down. Ask them if you want to know.
>>110205482I have a QMAC HF-90E which is handy except from being channelized. Range is impressive.>>110205853Did we ever get any information on just how IDF was able to exfiltrate live feeds from numerous cameras in Tehran? The bandwidth had to be impressive.
>>110199986Unironically, we go back to BBS and Ham Radio, we will all be much happier.We can run a MUD and do raids, it'll be great.
You forgot the power grid is also going down.
>>110201049>ACK
>>110199986I've been thinking of getting a LORA kit.
>>110209604The snag is that bandwidth will be abysmal. A text only BBS is fine, a raid cannot happen.
>>110199986I would communicate over ssh chat.
>>110211109chans can be made raid proof. simple as.
>>110201163I will suck your dick if you post the magnet, I only have non fiction books from MAM and almost nothing of literature as they started deleting the collection uploads
This was the major plot hole from Terminator 3. AI was taking over the internet. Then AI nuked the world. Destroying most of the internet. It made no sense. AI wants more data centers, not less.
>>11020030150+ years worth of software, emulators and serial to tcp/ip interfaces. fucking retard.
>>110211509>chans can be made raid proof. simple as.your mother and father were actually brother and sister, weren't they? raid proof only works if you have someone permanently unemployed using the site 24/7. very few do this.
>>110199986who wants to communicate with 4troon fearmongers anyways
>>110201105Geese man at least get a ukulele and alcoholism or something.
>>110213753I like hanging out with you guys...
>>110201049>>110201107>>110201197Couldn't an AI cyber attack take control a SDR and affect these alternative networks too?
>>110212472don't sign your posts
>>110201105Found out this was basically me when a while ago a huge storm took my power out for over a day and my phone wasn't charged. Instead of re-examining my circumstances my move was to just buy a large battery bank so if it happens again I won't have to go without the internet/phone because I immediately started going crazy.
>>110216293>useless and moronic fucking retard really can't stand being known as a fucking retard that doesn't know how computers work>how does 50+ year old technology works?fucking retards, everyone.
