What if some alien civilization had the technology to strip not just the earth of all gold but also from satellites surrounding the globe in space? Think like Bad Guys 2 movie near the end.

I didn't write "should" because my first thought goes to tech that we use already that relies on gold being a part of the equipment. It gets worse when I imagine people having gold teeth and then gets even worse when I think about health tech that could also be using gold for some reason (fake hearts?).

Anyway, it's kind of a nightmare scenario in my mind.

I'd be more worried about zinc oxide.
