One way or another, there will be a major backlash. Things will not continue as they are now. The potential exists to make present-day computing look as primiitive in ten years as punched-card readers look now, but a lot of forces are pressing in the other direction.
The Internet will eventually sting itself to death with its own poison by (a) pushing clutter, garbage, and smut into people’s lives and (b) making it so easy to victimize people with fraud, deception, and theft.
A whole generation of social misfits will try and fail to make their way in a world they’ve experienced only vicariously, without benefit of real interactions with other people or the world.
Employers will discover that computers are the biggest Trojan Horse of all time, costing many times more than they provide in efficiency and productivity, and they will be removed from offices and cubicles by the millions.
The power grid will be so severely affected by curtailment of the energy supply that many of us will be stuck with a bunch of useless boxes that we can’t plug in.
The economic situation will worsen to the point that people give up their DSL lines in order to keep buying groceries.
People will discover just how much of their lives is owned by the networking infrastructure companies that shuffle their bits and can capture (and use, sell, or deliver to the government) any of it that they want for whatever purposes they want, and people will move to take back their own information.
A century from now nobody will be able to explain to kids what this experience was really like.
