It turned out approximately 1,000,000 households were left without broadband. What would happen to them if they were on cloud computing?

Apparently they would save their documents locally and then sync them with the cloud when the connection returned. The e-mail would be a difficulty though. Then they would need a backup provider or a smartphone with POP/IMAP access to their accounts.
