There could be different reasons for this, including transition to more efficient forms of communication than electromagnetic signals, loss of interest, singularity... Nevertheless self-annhilation / exhaustion of natural resources is a realistic possibility. Therefore in this scenario the absence of contact tell us something important about the future of our own civilization, i.e. there should be an important transition in what we are happening in a short timescale $L$. Is there anybody out there? – (not now, they're all ''gone''. And you're next) –  Time to We can't say for sure what that is, but we can  estimate when that's gonna happen! happen.
