3 days of internet darkness

[aveatry]

So we hear from politicians around the globe to be ready for 3 days (or more) without electricity, gas, water and of course... internet.
Given how trustworthy they have been in recent years, I question whether they are preparing something or they already have.
Now, imagine if we were off grid for 3 days, then internet comes back and...
Your bank balance is close to zero...
Your ISA has gone to a few hundred pounds...
Your mortgage is not £100k anymore but £200k...
Your private pension gone...
Do you have any proof of what you had before the 3 days shutdown???
I didn't, up to last night, so I duly started a screen recording, logged into every relevant website, saved balance sheets with last 30 days transactions and then printed them.
Screen videos saved on 2 separate usb pens.
Over the top???
Maybe, but with this lot being in charge, better be safe than sorry if you ask me.
What would you possibly be able to do if you had no hard evidence of your life savings, there was this shutdown and you found all of it gone?
Do you think the banks would be kind enough to believe your word?

I have refused all attempts by my services to "go paperless" so I get statements in the post. Go paperless is a nonsense because I would only print it off myself anyway.

They want us to drive electric cars use phone banking and then turning off the landline. Smart meters "for your convenience" Then tell us to prepare for electric outages, its almost like there is a plan.

And another thing --- it wont be just 3 days. Has every one forgotten "3 Weeks to flatten the curve"

Russia and especially their ally China would win ww3 without shooting a single bullet.
They would just need to stop all export and block all our gadgets remotely to take us back to the middle ages.
And NATO thinks that throwing money at arms is the solution.
Fools.

Stupid councils and government departments installing Chinese communication equipment. Chinese EV cars that will stop at flick of a button.

Best way to protect oursellves is to build a larder, all new houses should have them built as standard. Then when the call comes to surrender or we will switch your fridge off, we could smugly say "Fek off, I have a larder" Cheaper to build than an air raid bunker it just makes perfect sense.

If there was big explosions and people in numbers being killed in buildings, trains or airplanes, we would all know we are being attacked.

Small attacks of any nature spread wide and far go under the radar, even if people die.

Its a bit like a fraudster taking a penny from your account.. You will never notice its gone. If that fraudster takes a penny from millions of bank accounts each time, he makes millions. (IT COULD BE A SHE OR AN OTHER)

Its stealth​

Nonsense

Sorry to disappoint but those internet lighting columns you install are on the front line

Community estate or home based based power, solar lead with ground or air source heat pumps, not perfect but will make it harder for vlad to disrupt

That's what I have been saying on here about our fridge outage in the summer - it was blamed on climate change as a cover story because the real reason -a putin hack would amount to an act of war.

A conspiracy theory isn’t required, no government pretended it was climate change to somehow protect Vlad

Modern solar panels come from China and work via an app.
A Chinese app...

Correct. It has already been explained that it was older fridges that suffered and that they couldn't cope with the extremes of heat. Some folk struggle to comprehend plain English, so they resort to conspiracy claptrap as a comfort blanket.

Keep digging holes boyo, you might just need one when "the conspiracy's" turn out to be correct
