if rebooting is and option, it will release the mounts. And should be safe because mounting on top of an existing path doesn’t really break anything. the original files still exist, but are just hidden because they are under the new mount. Once the mount is released, everything should be as it was.

Yes.

you most likely have a terminal open that is currently in that path.

umount -f /home/skynet

You can force it.

umount /home/skynet

should release it.

can you see the the mount using mount ?

sudo sshfs -o allow_other,default_permissions shady@192.168.50.16:/home/shady/skynet /home/skynet

You mounted your desktop files on top of the server files.

fusermount -u /home/shady/skynet

this should be

fusermount -u /home/skynet

As I understand it…That’s exactly how mobile phones work when you dial emergency number. if your operator has no signal, it automatically selects the strongest cell signal and attempts it through that. And you don’t even have to know the country equivalent number, dialing 911 will automatically route to the local emergency center. There’s a list of numbers that are recognized as emergency numbers by the phone/sim, but the actual number is not even used when the call is initiated. In general as long as you have a phone with battery left, you should be able to make a call to emergency center.
