Carter Price
No, it's like telling someone to kill every person on earth.
Leo Brooks
As in impede practical usage for a massive amount of users? Yes.
As in stop the flow of packets completely ? No.
Jace Anderson

nice internet you've got there... it would be a shame if something were to happen to it...
Mason Brown
if you can shoot every satellite out of the sky maybe
Caleb Clark
Yeah just throw a bunch of chum on every deep sea internet cable so sharks break them and then lay mines to destroy the ships sent out to repair them. One man job desu.

They just don't care anymore.
Jace Davis
This. Attacking root DNS would be slow and impractical but certainly disruptive to most users.
Jason Price
It's possible to take down but it's none of our business. I don't know about permanently. It's kind of like pandora's box. People can always rebuild.

Luis Sullivan

Kayden Diaz

John Cox

Not knowing what the internet was designed to be - a communications system specifically designed to survive a nuclear war by routing messages around damaged / destroyed parts of the network.

Nigga, the main network runs through transoceanic fiber cable.
David Gomez
In order to do that you have four options:
>Cut each transoceanic fiber cable so practically internet is done for (except for governments and military)
submarinecablemap.com
>Destroy each main root server building
google.com
>Destroy all means of energy that could power those servers (the only thing capable of that would be a super solar flare and humanity would be done for)
>Kill all humans
The easiest way to take out the internet of you life is by killing yourself, I encourage you to do that.
Angel Diaz
It is if you can manage to DDoS all of the internet servers at the same time, so it's pretty hard but doable.
Colton James
>Is it possible for someone to take down the internet
Sure. It's mostly just a bunch of physical cables and data centers. Those are all things that can be destroyed.
>permanently
I guess if you killed all white and asian humans, there wouldn't be many people left who'd have the knowledge or manufacturing ability to rebuild it.
Gavin Lewis
No, we'd build another.
