I learned to code during when internet access was limited to about 1hr/week, extremely slow, and unreliable. But now without inherent I just can’t get any work done. I guess it’s same for a good chunk of people.

I never worried about what would happen if internet were to become unavailable. Given that it’s become one an essential service I just trust that powers that be will make sure to get it back up.

But the internet will change too. Many people feel cheated that all their contributions were gobbled up by big tech and used to train their models without any remuneration or credit. In my life I experienced a very open internet but the closing down trend has started already.
