What are your backup plans for an internet and telecom shutdown?

I don't believe trusting in satilite internet companies (especially one owned by a fascist) are very practical.

Outside of radio and ad-hoc networks however, I'm not sure what other options would be feasible for the average person that wanted to prepare for something like this.

That sounds nice. But what happens if all communication is cut during an emergency of some kind. How do you check if your friends and family are safe. How would you organize to help your community?

Edit; no, I won't watch your YouTube video.
