I'd think we're actually going to see a split. Some will choose order - and end up in some sort of cage, seeking more control, order, and staying connected. Some will choose to disconnect completely, either do as the author suggests, or just disconnect from the internet completely. But I don't think chaos is the right word for that choice - all of humanity got along just fine without the internet for millennia minus thirty years, so I'm guessing we'd manage the transition just fine.
