Conspirachodes are going to throw a fit.
I look forward to the Qultist’s excuses when everyone who got the vaccine is still alive on Oct 5th (as I expect they’re going to spend the next 28 days saying how 5g is going to activate the vaccines and kill all the sheeples who got the shot.)
28 days later…
It’s fun listening to the Knowledge Fight guys remember Alex Jones said everyone who got vaccinated would be dead within two years. And then having to make up some bullshit about a fake saline shot instead to explain why those mass deaths didn’t happen.
Nah this is to get everyone ready for the impending war with China
Clearly the tinfoil hats will protect them. /s
Government: Emergency organization make rare, once-in-a-decade test of emergency alert system
Conspiracy Theorists: Panik
One might remember when FEMA’s morgue in Austin TX held a deceased person under the false pretense they had died in a bombing, in reality they were growing an alien creature within them.

Will it also be sent directly into the 5G chips in my brain? I got vaccinated
Unpopular take: I disabled emergency alerts on my device.
If I was in Japan or some other country where natural disasters are expected, there is a clear benefit to a mobile EAS.
But why exactly are governments starting to show an interest in EAS systems, in places where they seem to not be necessary or needed?
Well, one reason is that they’ve been utilized for Amber Alerts. Granted a lot of cities/states haven’t been able to figure out how to practically scope the announcements, but they are helpful.
Another is the ever-changing climate. My region (Southern New England) rarely ever gets tornados. We had three a few weeks ago. One was in my hometown, and another was a couple of blocks from my bosses house. So while you may not be “prone” to natural disasters, that is likely to change.
That said, if there ever were a reason to activate a National EAS, we would probably feel a lot better not being warned. That situation would likely be for confirmed launch of several nuclear munitions, or an eminent meteor strike, or something else cataclysmic that a few minutes warning would really do nothing except fill our last moments with fear.

Nukes coming, stay safe bro. Lol
That bit about being prone to natural disasters in future does make sense, considering how climate change is resulting in increased in sea levels and affecting other things too.
Thanks for your perspective!
How helpful are the amber alerts really? I’m not going to call the cops every time I see a green Hyundai, and if I see a kid in distress I’m going to call them with or without the alert
I don’t think it’s as unpopular as you think. I’ve also disabled them due to frequency.
Too many alerts for everything at all times. Alert fatigue is real. I hate that I’ve done it, as I may miss something important.
I have also disabled alerts.
That noise fills me with anxiety when I hear it.
While you can disable moist emergency alerts, I don’t believe you can disable the national level alerts.
The aliens have landed.
