This is why I’m such a Luddite. We are WAY too dependent on electronic toys.
I have to agree with you about our dependency. Meanwhile, even the sun could put out a solar flare and get us whacked out for awhile. There is something to be said for at least having stuff that works without the new technology.

An EMP would take out cars
computers
electric grids
trucks
trains,
planes
hospital equipment
elevators,
water treatment plants,
garbage trucks,
oil refineries
gas stations... etc etc etc.
It's NOT just 'electronic toys'...
Fortunately my ‘puter is completely analog and is immune to EMP. As long as FR continues arriving, I’ll be fine.
