well, because most of the time, we are using the our gadgets, pc to search, watch videos or movies, to earn money, and to learn something. what if we still don't have the internet? what do you think you are doing right now?

Before the internet I went out to the flea market and sold stuff every weekend. Now I sell on ebay for extra money.

Everything has her own time, it just so happens that it's the internet today, think of the past going back to landline phones, televisions, radios, books, watching plays and writing poems, so on and so forth, man would always find a way to preoccupy himself.

I do like to have the internet to check for this and that info. If there is no internet, I tend to go read books.

me too, and even you're inside your home, if you have an internet, it feels like you're also in somewhere else by just by reading news and watching some viral things.

I will speak for myself. I'm dependent on the Internet. I watch videos, talk, earn money, read and much more. If there was no internet, I would be very upset. But, in time, my sadness would pass.

I think some are very dependent on the internet some good, some bad. I use it for making money and researching, reading and watching some videos. Without it right now I would be reading another book. Even with the internet I read about 3 books a week. If it went bye bye, would I miss it, of course but I wouldn't die or flip out.

No doubt the internet and technological advances that we have benefit us but I do believe that we rely too much on technology that we are near-crippled if these are taken away from us.

I think we are waayyy to depend on the internet. Everywhere I go, things have to be done through the Internet and msot of the time hands-on and paper is so much easier because technology is such a pain in the butt.
