It's basic sockets. If you call connect() when the internet is disabled, the errno is ENETUNREACH.
The higher-level API are built on sockets. If any apps are misbehaving, they're simply badly coded.

I don't think you can get ENETUNREACH from recv though. If the request was sent, it'll time out.

Yup. I've done a bit of that stuff, in my time.

Plenty of that stuff, going around.
Might want to ease back on the "instant insult" thing. Not a good look.
