[–] 44gg44gg 3y ago ↗ I was rudely woken by 2 loud back to back emergency broadcast from my phone at 3am without any prior warning or way to opt-out.https://www.fcc.gov/fcc-sets-september-12-and-13-test-dates-... [–] dotBen 3y ago ↗ I'm sorry to hear that. [–] sophacles 3y ago ↗ Good, the emergency system works. [–] e40 3y ago ↗ You can turn these off on iOS. All four types. [–] wl 3y ago ↗ Abusing emergency alerts so people want to turn them off is a bad idea. If there's a wildfire or tornado that requires people to immediately evacuate/shelter at 3 AM, people very well might die if they don't receive these alerts. [–] mbStavola 3y ago ↗ My condolences
