One thing I can guarantee, is that the best computer scientists on the planet are not a part of the government. They are biding their time, and plan to implode the network when/if this shit goes. Localized networks will still be available to those with the knowledge on the infrastructure still functioning. And they will be necessary. Thank you for the well thought out post. I can see your vision is clear. I know from my activities on the interwebs my name is at the top of the list as soon as they go to round up strong white people that have had enough. Coincidentally I believe what malcolm x came to believe late in his life. Separation of the races is the only way. He was having meetings with the brothers of Islam, and the KKK in attendance to solve this problem. Then they murdered him. If they come to round me up, the revolution, or at least my final stand will happen at my door step. I have a gun on me at all times these days.
