This is all hypothetical, so don't put me on a list, but if the Google server's were to suffer an emp attack, how much of a shift do you think there would be to the politics pushed on the Internet?
A lot of massive capacitors, an enormous coil, and an insane amount of electricity. Such a weapon would almost certainly be the size of a semi and cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, only to destroy itself after being used once.
Doable with a lot of financing and connections, not so much otherwise.
Google's servers are located in multiple redundant secure data centers around the world. You'd have to have a coordinated effort spanning multiple geographic locations, and even if the active servers were knocked out, nothing significant would be permanently lost, just temporarily degraded capability

Half of the internet would stop working, sadly. It's the kind of build back better we need though.
Hmm (looks up ways to create an emp without requiring a nuke)

Server availability rate suddenly drops to 40.999%.
You’re already on a list. Might as well let it rip.
