They are handing out Faraday cages of all shapes and sizes?
But the elec. grid/etc. for We the Serfs?...Too ‘low on the totem pole’ I suspect.
They probably intend to keep the voting records and the ATF’s weapon applications at this facility.
How much data can you safeguard with a measly 2,000 square feet?
“But why? Per some FReepers there is no such thing as EMP.”
Even though the effects have been PROVEN. That’s why we need some type of Electronic Pearl Harbor to get us our of drunken stupor. My preference would be blow to the outer islands of Hawaii. Close enough to fry everything electronic there (on the outer islands), but far enough to spare the major population centers. Then after evacuating 50,000 or so people out there we will have REAL WITNESSES that will speak for how ALL of their cars turned into Tesla Bricks, and (horror of horrors) their IPADS smoked, for example.
“New Data Center Protects Against Solar Storms and Nuclear EMP”
You don’t need protection against a solar storm. It manifests itself in power quality/availability only - so every data center that has backup power (and they all do) have this protection.
Now nuclear EMP is a different animal. 2000 sq. ft of data center space is not that much - 5 hardened shipping containers would come close to that.
Good marketing move though.
“Per some FReepers there is no such thing as EMP.”
But there are idiots building data centers that think otherwise. Not all people that believe in EMP are trailer queens.
