I feel like exploring one of the more likely possibilities first: That someone has placed some sort of shield around the Earth that is preventing the suns rays reaching us. But first a quick proviso: This post is based on the belief "absence of expected evidence is evidence of absence"; not everyone admits to agreeing with this, but people still seem to assume that an inability to see money means you haven't given it to them.
I believe the fact that satellite transmissions haven't been reported as weakening, nor the stars as dimming* means these things haven't happened.
So, if an Earth-borne shield is actually the cause of the dark sun, it is curiously specific, It is blocking only the Sun's light, not other light passing through the same point in a different direction.
The technology to do this is even more implausibly advanced than even basic forcefields seem, so if we're dealing with technology it's likely that whoever's running it is capable of shielding themselves from any attacks, and quite possibly of making themself invisible. Of course, if it's being done with magic, well, we really can't guess at what's going on.
*In fact, due to low cloud cover, the stars have been more visible than usual.
