Cybercriminals are creaming their jorts at the potential exploits this might open up.

Surely you can. Modern electric stovetops use infrared radiation from a wire coil to heat cookware. The stovetop is covered with a ceramic that allows infrared radiation to pass through, and if you put something on it, it'll absorb the radiation as heat. The technology is also scalable to industrial applications.
I'll let Brown Jacket Man explain the principle. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ff04ecF9Dfw
(edit) My house has an electric water heater that was built in the Soviet Union. It uses a ~200-litre tank with a large heating element inside.
- Better insulation.
- Heat pumps.
- By the time gas heating is eliminated, climate change will have solved that problem.
In addition, the Earth's sudden stop means that OP's relative velocity is around 220 km/s because of the solar system's orbit around the galactic center. If OP is on the prograde side, they are launched through the air and evaporate before they have a chance to die in the cold of space. If OP is on the retrograde side, they immediately splatter against the planet with a kinetic energy of about 1.5 terajoules (assuming a body mass of 60 kg).
Now, if we were talking about one Nokia...
Doctor Ignaz Semmelweiss in the mid-1800s suggested that obstetricians should wash and sterilize their hands before attending their patients to reduce the chance of postpartum infection. He was rejected by the medical community, ridiculed by colleagues, and eventually locked in an asylum where he was killed.
We're sliding back in time.
Evaporated inside the Death Star's reactor -> Get Somehowed back into existence.
There's no superpower that compares to bad writing.

That's pretty much how he kept the public image of "eccentric genius" for so many years. I once read an article (can't remember where, don't care enough to search) that said that SpaceX had/has a team whose entire purpose was to babysit Musk when he had a temper tantrum. The team formed organically, like a cyst around a foreign object, and minimized damage to PR.
When Twitter was infested, it didn't have this immunity and now the world (or those of us who care) knows how much of a shithead he is.
Riot was/is also a cesspit of sexual harrassment and discrimination, but nobody seems to remember.
Embracer is a sickness, a malignant fucking growth on gaming.
Unless what it "looks like" disproves another conspiracy they've swallowed hook, like, sinker, cock, and balls; then whatever it "looks like" is a conspiracy to cover up "the truth"!
