What would happen if the internet collapsed?

What happens if the internet collapsed for a few minutes?

Have you ever wondered what would happen if the entire internet was shut down for even a second? In this article, I will tell you what happens on the internet every 1 second and if the entire internet is turned off for 1 second as well? So, let's explore...

1. Data Consumption:

Millions of people are online on the Internet all the time, and if we calculate the data of all the users, it will be about 40 GB, which means every second, so much data is used on the Internet. So if the internet is turned off, then so much data will be lost. And basically, it impacts the government and company work. 

2. Google:

Every second, about 121,456 searches are done on Google, i.e., by this time, I have said this sentence, there must have been millions of searches on Google. So, Google needs such powerful super servers it manages so much data of so many users. According to the survey, google can capture more than 95% of the market over the world. Google gives many types of platforms; if the internet is closed for a single second, so many Google searches will be closed, and all of the works are pending. If a person has vital work at that time, then it will miss. But in today's scenario, google does have any problem to down their server for many hours. If google has any problem, the team can fix that problem or bug within an hour max. Sometimes it fixes within a minute. So, we get any problem at the time of using Google. 

3. YouTube:

There are about 252,600 videos per the second view on YouTube and uploads in about 2.5 hours of video/second; if the internet is turned off even for a second, all these views and uploads will stop. And the most important thing is that many of the YouTubers can get problems when the server is down. I hope this will not happen in our life.

4. Facebook and Twitter: 

You must be using Facebook and Twitter; about 5 profiles are created every second on Facebook per second, more than a 1.6million people live online, and if we talk about Twitter, then more than 10,000 tweets are tweeted every second. If the internet is closed, then 1.6millions people will not be able to chat among themselves with Facebook, and Twitter will not have so many tweets.

5. Email

Is there something that can happen 2.5millions of times every second? Actually, every second 2.5millions emails are sent and received, and 60% of this number is only spam; if the internet is turned off, this will also not be possible.

Now I want to tell you that in reality, all this is not possible. Actually, The internet as a whole can never be closed. Internet is a decentralized network, and it does not have any center that you press any switch. The whole internet will shut down simultaneously, Google will be closed, Facebook doesn't also need to be closed, and if Facebook is closed, Google doesn't also need to be closed. Along with food, dress, and house, the internet has also become a basic need in today's world. Personally, I can't live even 1 day without the internet. Can you also like me?
