People had fanciful minds. They had expected the civilization to end in bio-warfare, or atomic bombs, or a blazing meteorite impact.
No such luck. The end of the civilization came, rather anticlimactically, when the humans discovered that side effects and timing attacks made any form of cyber-security a joke. Their computers screeched to a halt bogged down by nightmarish security patches.
By then, it was already too late to go back and live off the land.
