I just got one at 11:00 o’clock at NIGHT. It was the second I got today. Those air sirens scare the hell out of me. why cant they just reserve the warning noise for natural diasters. I’m okay with getting amber alerts notifications on everyone’s phone but theres so no need to play such a spine chilling sound effect.
The standard that the alert system is based on has different levels of severity defined, but for unknown reasons the implementation that Canada settled on only uses the most serious level for all alerts.
The mechanism for differentiating types of alerts exists, it just needs to be used.
I’m so sick and fucking tired of you assholes pissing and moaning about amber alerts. Someone’s kid is missing. If it was your kid I would want to get the alert in case I was the person who just happened to be standing in front of them in a convenience store or on the street.
I am a light sleeper, whenever I have been woken up by these alerts I’ve been unable to sleep again for the remainder of the night. Not everybody can fall asleep easily like you do.
And since you feel so angrily about the subject, perhaps you wouldn’t be so grumpy if you had a good night’s sleep.

I want to opt out of amber alerts. Unless it is targeted to a geographic areas and I consent, stop wasting my time and trying to kill me.
100% of the time, I have not seen your child.

Pull your head out of your ass and grow up.
Relevance matters or everyone stops listening. It is not appropriate to spam an entire province.
So when you get an amber alert do you jump out of bed and start running down the street looking for children?
I didn’t think so.
No, I take a quick look at the alert and if it doesn’t apply to me I go back to sleep like an adult, why, what do you do?
