Yeah I heard about this , seems a bit OTT ...but I guess we'll see.

The thought of everyone's phone going off at 3pm next Sunday afternoon is very weird.

i don't want to disable it, i want to know what it sounds like so i know when a real one comes in.

Contrary to the narrative, I think there is a high likelihood that it will be used in the future

What are Emergency Alerts?

The Government says you may get alerts about:

severe flooding
fires
extreme weather
public health emergencies

IT BEGGARS BELIEF how stupid this nanny state bollocks is
