A bunch of e-books and all the SNES roms I can grab.
I would buy a ton of storage devices as secretly as possible and hide them, hoping the government doesn't notice. Then I'd use the drives to make a sneakernet type situation.
I have already more than 100GB, why would I rip out my drives when the internet is going down?

I already have 30GB of math textbooks, I guess I'll just download another 70GB of textbooks on various subjects and sell them to students. Y'all gonna return after 5 years to a new Elsevier.
The 4K Blu-ray remux of Andor Season 1 is 230 GB. This new government might be shutting down the internet, but I doubt that they're monsters, and so surely wouldn't expect me to re-watch it in any lower quality. Fortunately, I've worked out that the Aldanhi arc and the last 2 episodes are 102 GB, so it should be manageable if some recaps are cut.
Lots of anime. Some cherished games. I feel like i don't need a while lot of porn. Maybe those 5-6 vids that I currently frequent. That will probably get me through. Other than that; House; maybe all of Stargate but prob would never get to it; HBO watchmen series is totally rewatchable and would probably grab the movie too; bunch of misc horror films; all of law and order. Probably missed some stuff but the biggest loss would be all the new stuff that won't be released.
I did all of Stargate some 15 years ago. I feel a lot of nostalgia for it. If you never went through it all - definitively get that on your 100GB.
It's probably been 15 years since I watched them all. I just don't imagine I'd get that bored in just 5 years.
I’ve been meaning to download the Beats In Space Radio mixes from their archive so I’ll just add that
For myself? A midi-file library for music (1gb is easily tens of thousands of songs), some audio porn (video takes too much space), a whole bunch of E-Books (tabletop rpg, science, literature etc.), compilers for C, a bunch of core python packages etc.
Meanwhile I'd also head over to my university to warn staff of the impending doom such that they can spread the word to other institutions and start rescuing as much data as possible to non-digital formats.
100 GB is some rookie numbers. I've had 8tb for years, I'm only half full and the drives are starting to age out. I've already replaced one with a 4tb drive, once the rest are replaced, it'll be 16tb total.

Lines of "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy" in any format that can fill up 100GB.
Wasn't there a Uni project a few years back trying to summarize key civilization building concepts - like basic agriculture, tool making, shelter making, that sort of thing. Because whatever society described by OP is going to have serious problems.
