we got a solar maximum coming up... and the storm that made aurora visible to even as south as florida last night suggests that there might be more incidents of record breaking EMF incursions into the atmosphere soon
what if the bursts have their strongest resonance in the mobile radio spectrum, in microwave frequencies, and instead of having a grid down and internet down situation, instead just 99.999% of mobile towers and mobile radio devices and wifi get fried
now that's a scenario i am excited about
and further, it might mean that the world starts to take seriously the idea that we should be focusing on making our electrical shielded with good quality earthing, our computers should be desktops, and our displays, which probably are quite vulnerable, to have a nice faraday cage wrapped around them
and then when the REAL solar storms come, the "global killshot" and the market has moved enough to delivering genuinely EMP proof house and consumer fixed electronic devices and network systems are focusing on shielded, mostly underground wired or for overground all is optic fibre, and the impact will be minimal
but the best part is
people will stop carrying around mobile phones and considering radio to be a practical network connectivity method
they will see why people like me are averse to slow, and congested radio spectra, and maybe it will start to come out in research how much our health is negatively impacted by being exposed constantly to radio frequency radiation
if the sun is gonna do it anyway, nothing we can really do about that, but if it fries all the radios
