VoIP and teleconference apps --- Considering how we've become reliant on VoIP for personal communications and teleconference apps for business, I'd say those are some of the better candidates for CI status. Another one worth mentioning is instant messaging. Brazil has had, over the years, a few cases of judges trying to block the main IM app (WhatsApp) and it caused a great deal of chaos as society had become reliant on it to coordinate even high-level businesses. Hospitals struggled to contact doctors and patients in the timely manner they had to, for example. I'd say that also makes it a good candidate.
