Notice any uptick in "A future solar flare could wipe out the entire internet" stories lately? I've seen them from multiple publications and even some of those informative youtube channels have put out videos on the subject. Is this setting the cover for a global coordinated take down of the internet? Will it coincide with the implementation of a global government? What better way to stop the spread of info than to get rid of internet communications...

This has come up repeatedly since the early days of using satellites to deliver news feeds to the early ISPs.
If someone was going to conspire to damage the internet while maintaining control you could use a worm as an excuse and just say it's causing BGP flaps or attacking the root DNS servers. Both have happened and have taken down internet routing and DNS. Solar flares would be too hard to control and a lot of high end equipment or the buildings there in can protect against large scale emf already. There's too much redundancy and already prepared ISPs that this would be corrected in a moderate amount of time.
