The world relies too much on the internet, yet growing threats mean that the technology can break down completely in the near future.
Given how much the world relies on the internet, an apocalypse would take us to a literal digital dark age.
There are rumours that some governments are building an internet kill switch. If this were to go wrong, it would spell doom for humanity.
A massive cyberattack could also bring down the entire internet infrastructure.
It seems impossible, but worsening space weather could wipe out the internet and cause extensive damage to Earth’s communication system.
