Really? If Microsoft disappeared we would see a massive jump in Linux and Mac usage. If Facebook/Instagram people would jump on the next social fad. If Amazon disappears people would buy there stuff from some BigBox store. If AWS disappears that would be really painful for a while before people adopt.
