It comes from the sun and there isn't fuckall you can do to stop it, all you can do is EMP proof your stuff... but good luck with that... most of it isn't practical at all unless you build your house as a giant faraday cage and have a way to sever any connections coming in from outside just prior to the event
also, good luck with cell phone reception inside that.
The sun storm is the fake cover story for a possible EMP attack... it's not actually from the sun. So hopefully Space Force will be able to stop any attempted EMP attacks. That's what I meant.
but it would be very obvious if they try to fake one...
we'd get heads up from sun spotting groups if a big one was coming from the sun... there are teams of people all over the world, some working for government space agencies, some groups of hobbyists/enthusiasts... who all monitor the sun and sunspot activity
they do this primarily so we'd have enough warning to shut down pipelines and institute whatever EMP hardening measures are already in place for preparedness.
some require a physical decoupling of the stored devices so there is a whole protocol making sure no wires exit the faraday cages so there is a lot of eyes watching the sun to get most accurate solar weather predictions available.
i guess i just don't think there would be a way to go about disguising an EMP as a solar event, not for long anyway...
they will just blame it on pepe memes while sitting in their bunkers watching the country burn from the chaos they created.
I think what Neon and OP are getting at it that the DS would try to shut down as much communication infrastructure as they possibly can, while claiming that a solar storm is the cause. There would not actually be such a storm.
space force can't prevent shit like this.

right on...

sorta like they did last summer

They could easily launch an EMP over the middle of the country.
After what we've seen them do this past year i wouldn't put it past them.
