Is the internet still 'nuke proof'?
 

The whole idea of the net back in the cold war days was that it would be 'nuke' proof, before porn its only job was to keep communications open in the event of WW3 - Does that still stand?

With the events of the last few weeks you have to wonder would it still work?

If the worst happened would I still be able to see the BBC, CNN or GFY?

Obviously it would depend where IT happens to a degree.

Is the internet up to the job it was built for all those years ago?

that was the case with the "old" network, first one was from the army.

When did the old become the new?

It just evolved...

as long as they ship Al Gore to a safe bunker before the shit hits the fan, all will be good

An EMP weapon (like the one North Korea has on the launch pad right now) would knock out all electronics that were not protected. Detonate it in the atmosphere, like they can do, and it can cover a lot of area.

Well, It sure aint 'Poop Proof'.. After all, I'm on it...

If something nuclear happens, the last thing I'll be thinking about is the latest Youtube videos.

They have a missle that launches a emp weapon or you talking about the effects of a nuclear blast?

If NK launch a nuke you will have more poo than you can cope with - The poo will literally be flying...

It will be everywhere!.....

I'm sure the military version of the Internet is still nuke proof.

What we use... Most likely isn't. A few hits in the right spots would cripple the Internet.

The world will revert to bicycle telegrams.
