Will you greatly inconvenience all of mankind?


So everyone only gets 1 hour per 24 hour period. Time doesn't carry over, can't be saved, traded, sold, etc. But if you haven't used up all your time by the end of one day it can run directly into your next day's time without interruption. Internet time is counted for whenever you use something, so if your friend shows you something on YouTube it's only his time being used. But the time is counted for ANYTHING that uses internet. I think even your phone uses up the tiniest bit of data when you take it out to check the time.

Would you take the money? Does it depend whether or not people know you did this?

I'm sure a lot of us remember the days before the internet, but given how it's become such a huge part of the world, I don't think many people can live without it :<

Aha, this is a good point. What if the limit was restricted to non-work purposes only, such as gaming, YouTube, social media, etc.? So if your work was online then it wouldn't count, but if you were to post on Twitter or shop for something on Amazon then it would.

Haha defo many would struggle, I could do 1 hour esp for that amount!

Thinking of it imagine a catch that it takes more than 1 hour to transfer the money then you would be unable to receive it lol xD

With this amendment, I'll vote yes.

I'd make that deal even without the money. I genuinely think it would benefit a lot of people.

I still want the money though.

Even if it is, I think if people only have 1 hour a day to be online, a lot of that would correct itself.

People would have to put more thought into what they're doing online, and the ones that survive would need to put out better content to get viewers to waste their limited time.

Easy pass for me... I don't think any amount would make me say yes. I'd be bored out of my mind. 50 million is great... if I can use it... Without the internet, I think most of it would be wasted. And I'd just sit at home bored for part of the day. Like would suck...

Maybe some people. It would definitely make life worse for me... And not benefit me at all...

It does not. You can still check the time with your phone in airplane mode. It only uses the internet if you synchronize.

If I had that kind of money, Id have no need for internet. Wouldnt have access to it anyway because that kind of money would make it possible for me get way off the grid.

No. I dont mess with the lives of others

No. People get bored when they have internet for only one hour a day... And if part of that time was used on checking the time... Which some people do a lot... And would probably do more they had only a little time one the internet. And it would be worse if they had a smart watch...
