He uses the example of a worldwide economic collapse if Google went down for a month. Which is probably true. Except it isn't because all these services are fluff. If Facebook went down for a month, when it came back everyone would have forgotten about it, might even have forgotten social networking as a concept. If Uber was offline for a day, everyone would shrug and download Lyft and one ride later would have forgotten Uber ever existed.
