see this (http://news.com.com/Quakes+disrupt+phone%2C+Internet+service+in+Asia/2100-1037_3-6146062.html)

Two strong earthquakes off the coast of Taiwan damaged undersea communication cables disrupting phone and Internet service in Taiwan, China and Japan on Wednesday.I wonder what would happened if something similar disrupted service in the US or Europe? It would be a major disaster. No email, not nothing, think of it those who is addicted to the internet would cause riots because they know nothing else. :rotflmao::rotflmao:
