What if one day there was no Internet? The Web as we know it would be gone for good.

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has named Kaspersky Lab, a Moscow-based cybersecurity business and developer of popular antivirus software, as one of the organizations posing an unacceptable danger to US national security.

Domestic consumers, with the exception of government employees,…
