All that has to happen for a ‘Blackwall’ analagous scenario is enough undersea cables get cut/sabotaged.
Then you’re looking at a much more localized internet, where actually having a reliable or high bandwidth connection to a very far away place requires you to either have an insane jerry rigged solution, or a lot of money to pay for an increasing valuable, still existing intercontinental line.
Of course, we very much could also end up with a more intentionally constructed type of widespread firewalling as well… they already exist.
China’s great firewall, tons of other countries that have internet and/or social media killswitches…
