Could The Whole Internet Go Down?
In this short video I explore the possibility that the whole Internet could go down at some point during our astrological Age of Air, an epoch characterised by the primacy of information technology. The two greatest libraries in history, the Great Library of Alexandria and Baghdad's House of Wisdom were both destroyed during previous Ages of Air. The Internet is the great library of our era: could it become a target during future armed conflicts?
