Yes, as will most contemporary electronics, even without
elaborate protection.
Right, I think there is a lot of hype about this. A cell
phone should be fine (no wires) but anything connected to
the outside world (like phone modems, cable modems, power
outlets) etc. could be harmed. A computer that is plugged
into the wall socket and a modem could really get walloped,
as the two connections form a big loop to accept magnetic
coupling.
