NO!
Tho I lived most of my life without it, there would be no benefit of not having it.
Would I wanna go back to post office mail only? Collect reference books or go to the library to find information that is just a few mouse clicks on a search engine? Go out and risk catching upper respiratory diseases from friends instead of enjoying their company on a forum board filtered by virus protection?
Nah, it was a good change for the most part.

How would not being able to visit The Chamber be of any benefit? The only benny of no Internet would be one less bill but it's a shitty trade off.

I would read more books for sure. And the money savings would be great.

I wouldn't know things before I want to know them. Some folks don't believe in the "spoiler alert" warning--they just get to spoiling lol.

I've had internet access since 1996. Although it's been a part of my life for the past 16 yrs....I could honestly live without it if I had to. I didn't even miss it that much when I broke my phone and I canceled my service for a month after the hurricane.

It would save me $45 a month. I could use that money for gas.
