In a place without access to US apps and online services, how would you use the Internet?

OP only listed consumer services, not the infrastructure side. I completely agree with you that if we would take that part into consideration then ... Not a lot in the beginning. And in the end because the whole financial sector is also dependent on various US companies and their online services to process most payments ... Shit. I don't know which other critical infrastructures would break because stuff behind the curtain disappeared.

That said if it's really only "what I as consumer use" then things would look different - even though it all comes down to the details. I.e. no smartphone would be a nuisance .. unless Linux phones count.
