Work for BT, can confirm that the British government is shutting down the internet except for 'Critical' services.
There will be a rationing of bandwidth per household coming in later this week, access to many sites and services will be denied.
Gaming and video streaming will be severely curtailed, Youtube will be lowering resolutions and thousands of uploads will be effectively off limits. This is a big step, they are talking about allowing only government websites, those directly connected to the health service and some retailers will remain accessible.
EXPECT OCCASIONAL COMPLETE INTERNET BLACKOUTS ACROSS THE COUNTRY. They are going to shut all access to the internet down for limited periods in selected areas.

meme flaggot confirmed

Proof pls

why would they cut off the internet when they want people to stay at home?
Wyatt Phillips
my mom works for nintnendo and she said they are shutting down halo 3
Nathaniel Williams
Why? What reason do they have and what do they hope to gain apart from civil unrest. The internet is the only thing keeping people inside and is the only functioning part of the economy remaining
Jonathan Murphy
cue the qtards swarming this thread. nothing gets them more excited than anons writing some random shit about a happening with 0 evidence.
Jonathan Lee
what is essential serice on the internet? It's all just data. At most ask for not having everythings stremaed in 4K but rationing internet just drives people on the streets which is worse than having them just sit at home and watch tv
Jackson Price
I already gotta keep working. If these jewish nigerians turn off my bideo games I'm riding my dirtbike in the fucking streets and sidewalks.
My dad works for nintendo too and he says your mom has a loose asshole.
Austin Cruz
Al I know is there has been a massive surge in traffic over the past few weeks, they say this is about preserving the network and ensuring everyone has access to critical services, also they plan to extend TV services and put a freeze on the TV license, television will be where the vast majority will get their information and entertainment.
Because people working from home need the bandwidth. They can't have government workers unable to connect to databases so some zoomers can play fortnite.
If Britain shuts down the internet, shouldn't that curtail most of the ISIS propaganda uploads and solve the bandwidth problem for the rest of the world?
Damn. Maybe they should've upgraded to fiber when they had the chance.
Brody Myers
Enjoy your riots.
Connor Davis
Looks like they don't even want you texting the culling when it goes live. Explains why some of the regulars I see in video games haven't been online lately. Their countries probably did the same thing.
You can set those machines up to where they run on their own. You do know there is no downtime for ISPs for a reason. It's a bullshit lie.
Noah Rogers
Better not faggot, without internet people will revolt
>cheap out on internet >when you need it most, fuck everyone over Surprised that hasnt happened here yet. If anything mine has been better because they are upping CVC limits and no congestion at night so latency is stable.
doesn’t matter if it’s real or not, doesn’t matter if there’s proof. if you don’t think this is where things are headed, you didn’t watch event201. controlling information is a key part of the strategy for dealing with a pandemic crisis. bandwidth will just be the excuse because stupid niggers know the word as if it’s a real thing. it’s a matter of when not if.
Jaxon Sanchez
Well lets see how that will work for big corporations that drive Britain, for who you don't want to leave EU. Yes perhaps for households, only for goyim when he's not wiping ass of American corporation.
Dominic Cooper
This would never happen. Internet is considered as fundamental a utility as power, gas, and water. The internet will be the only thing stopping people from all out purging.
>You can set those machines up to where they run on their own. You do know there is no downtime for ISPs for a reason. It's a bullshit lie.
this man knows the truth. the way the infrastructure is configured, there is literally no such thing as 'not enough internet to go around'. the United States federal government and several state governments have already committed acts of war against the people, once the internet disappears everyone will understand.
we are going to shoot the national guard. we are going to shoot cops. everyone is going to be free and anyone who has a problem with that will die. there is no other scenario, this is what is happening.
what you don't understand is that in the shut down states the militias have already mobilized to take over the state house, and if word gets out that this is going down you will all understand that the second revolutionary war already started, and WE ALREADY WON
THEY CAN'T LET YOU KNOW

I already have CK2 (with mods), Mount and Blade: Warband (With mods), HOI4 (With mods), Fallout 4 (With over 300 mods), and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. I just keep these on my system for a rainy day.
Caleb Bennett
Should I buy something like aircard with mobile sims? Will cell networks be affected?
>This would never happen. habeeb it brother. i don't think it'll be our govt that does it, but imagine how much damage a major internet disruption would cause right now. america has no shortage of enemies
Christian Gomez
OP is so retarded, taking out internet nowadays is worse than taking out food from people in the west. Even in huezil would be riots and politicians being lynch in every city. If even without that they are already attacking health personal, imagine blocking a basic human need. In my country at least is put in the same category as water, food, electricity and internet. Everybody is connected to the internet nowadays you fucking forgot about "muh 4th industrial revolution"?
pfffft, that's why my isp said, but here i am getting throttled like a mother fucker. in their defense i have downloaded a little over 1tb in 3 days, but still.
this would unironically be one of the only things that would ensure the overthrow of the current system. It's one of the only things normies would go apeshit over.
The whole working from home "home office" shit doesn't even work lot's of companies realized this here because if you shut off business there is no office work to do.
>taking away the proles’ Soma >taking away the plebs’ bread and circuses >making people think they’re going to die of plague anyway and have nothing to lose >crash the economy and take away their savings so they have no hope >closing their companies so they have no jobs or income >cutting off their food supply >taking away all their guns and thinking they’ve been rendered harmless but forgetting that people spent 3 million years killing each other with rocks and sticks real unbroken chain of extremely high IQ maneuvers

The only reason why small companies exist in capitalism is to be little delivery maids for big company and take the fire that should be burning on big companies, so to save big companies.
