An EMP weapon was the subject of a Popular Mechanics article I saw awhile back. It claimed you could manufacture a bomb that would cripple the entire NYC-Boston area from materials purchased from Ace Hardware for I think less than $900. Anybody else read that one?
Anyways it is something that an enemy whose symbolic target was the financial heart of globalization would strike at in a "Fight Club" sort of vengeance. How do you defend against something that attacks computers? This sort of weapon would restore balance to the world and put everyone back on even ground again, third world countries to modern industrialised ones. Not that I am advocating such an attack, just pondering the question.
