Once you accept the cash internet all over the world vanishes forever. Along with the knowledge of re creating it. The memory of using the internet will still be in everyone's mind. But the knowledge of creating it will be vanished from the minds of humans forever. No one will know you caused the internet's vanishing.

Pretty sure I won't be able to use any of those dollars in the societal collapse that would follow from that

'Gimmie da f'n money'

Ha, ha. The return of movie rental stores, game magazines and every series getting a Dvd boxed set. I don't have to dislike streaming as it is, but the industry doesn't share, even with the shows doing poorly.

I almost forgot to mention, complete fighting games for once. This hypothetical fantasy is almost too good. Cruel, even.

That seems like a super bad idea for a whole host of reasons.

Fuck no!

As others have said there will be anarchy and chaos and a possible collapse of society. We have become very dependent on the internet.

If society collapses then money becomes worthless.

50 million but no online shopping? And no online stock market? No draft kings or fan duel? No google search to figure out where to go or what restaurants to take advantage of? Having to anonymously troll cowboys fans in public?

Ill pass.

The world was fine before the internet and it'd be fine eventually if it was gone.

This. So much of our infrastructure is reliant on the Internet that it suddenly going away would be nothing less than catastrophic.

Bullshit. The internet slowly came and took over. A rug pull would be abject chaos.

Some people probably think internet = social media, without realizing pretty much everything in society is tied to the internet.

That's true for basically any worldwide disaster though.

Yes. It would be bad and people would feel like they are going to die with no internet but society wouldn't collapse.

It definitely would. Even if things get better later, this would absolutely collapse society as we know it. So many critical systems are reliant on internet access, not just leisure stuff.
