8pm thru 12am is prime time for streaming. Netflix would need to pivot or go out of business.

Since most phones networks now operate over IP, overnight customer service would break. The US can no longer use call centers in India for daytime call centers.

Batch jobs requiring Internet access can no longer run overnight. Instead they would need to run during the day, tying up bandwidth and CPU for other users. System engineers would need to take this into consideration.

It would be more difficult to coordinate with friends when going out at night. You could no longer order an Uber at 2am if you're drunk off your ass. DWI events would increase.
