As soon as your calls makes it to a cell tower it gets encapsulated and routed over a telco’s network. Any call you make from one call provider to another will traverse the internet. And depending on the extent of the thought experiment for disabling the internet, you could include disabling individual telco’s networks as well, meaning you won’t be calling anyone… except for maybe someone on the same tower as you.
How would you communicate about it? Lol
I imagine the same way all meetings, coups, revolutions, and the like has happened since the beginning of humanity:
You meet and talk in person.

You really think if everyone lost access to their porn machines they wouldn’t immediately call up their friends and say wtf?
That call likely uses the Internet as well.
People generally use apps and such, but as far as I’m aware most phones still come with a phone number these days
What’s your point?

That’s kinda sad ngl
Yeah. I fumble my words on the phone whenever I speak on the phone. I know it’s sad, but that’s me.
In secret like we use to.
Bluetooth
Building meshnets
We never actually needed corporations to maintain the internet. The people have just been too lazy and selfish to bother searching out alternatives.
