Well, for one thing, the devil is only about 800 years old. Made my man to control man.
Knowing that, where was the devil before electricity if electricity is the devil?

Please show me where the word devil is in the bible. It is not. It was created about 800 years ago when the worship of Greek gods started to become popular. The horns and hooves look was stolen from Pan in the victorian times because there was a popular Greek revival again.
Now as far as electricity being the devil, I think it is possible. The devil is a demon by most non biblical accounts. The origin of the Greek word for demon is knowledgeable, smart, teacher, learned one. As the internet is electric in nature and all human knowledge is there, it is a demon.

I just think it's funny how some people did actually think electricity was of the devil. Dark magic stuff. And ya know, in a way, they weren't far off

In the sense that the brain/central nervous system operates via electro-chemical impulses, and the heart itself beats due to electrical impulses, yes... electrical currents flowing to and fro at an ever increasing rate from a plethora of devices, appliances, circuits, wireless and wired... impacts the way our minds and bodies function at a very basic level. Add sound/resonance to that and I dare say you effect the very nature of a person. And that's all before you add in the propaganda in an actual broadcast.
Is it evil? 'Artificial' electrical signals, foreign to the human body, has negative effects on nature and wildlife... I guess it depends on the definition of evil, but yeah I don't think it's good for us at all!!
