I feel like the modern version of this would have the neighbourhood largely intact, but humans killed via miniature drones.

Drives home the point how few anticipated that batteries would advance so much.

There are many ways this could all end, a nuclear war is still on the list.

"Wireheaded by social media so hard you're unemployable" is at least as plausible as a city-scale antipersonel drone strike; even Ukraine's strikes against Russia are around 1200-1800/day.
