In Home Alone, didn't something take out the phone lines?

I'm sure "something" would happen in a modern version of Home Alone.

Most likely, the parents would be arrested when they got home.

Cell towers go down along with fiber and coax.

No cell phones or internet in a modern home with no VHS, DVD or Blu-Ray. Kids don't know about broadcast television. Just that his Fortnite/Minecraft/Roblox doesn't work.

Family would come home to a feral child and a destroyed home after the kid goes batshit without supervision.

Any storm big enough to knock out cell towers would probably ground all flights.
