  • If a) every server in world was connected to a single power source; b) there were no back ups or off grid servers (or any other loop holes); and c) I turned the power off and on again, could I theoretically erase all the information on the internet?

    As I suspect the answer is no, if I left it powered off for a year then turned it back on, would there be any issues (purely related to the information stored on the internet, not societal collapse)?

  • Some databases are stored in RAM (more so before SSDs), so theoretically if they didn't dump them out before your act of vandalism there could be lost data as they revery to the last backup.
