Military hardware has been systematically hardened against this since at least the 1980s in the US. I'm sure most other modern militaries have taken similar precautions.

Guerilla forces would be more exposed because they would likely be using repurposed consumer or obsolete military equipment, neither of which is likely to be hardened against this type of attack.

I can't find any information about the power level or wavelength, so it's hard to say to what extent devices can be shielded from this, but it's safe to say that civilian electronics will be more susceptible in general than military equipment.

I'm sure there are easier ways to take out blackberry messanger. Though the prospect of hoodies out of tinfoil could provide for some comedy moments.
