>Oh I'm sorry, did we wake you up? Or your baby? Did you get startled and almost crashed your car? Don't worry, this is only a test! Yes, another one. No, you cannot turn this off. See you in three months!Why is this allowed
elites are toying with the goyim
I didn't get this alert, should I be worried?
>>107094125>BEEEEEEEEEEOOOP BEEEEEEEEEEOOOP BEEEEEEEEEOOOOOP>Attention: 12 year old Ashley McGregor has been """kidnapped""" by Bon McGregor 250 miles from your location. Keep an eye out.
>>107094150If you have a phone running on Android 10, iOS 15 or lower you can still turn it off. Or if you built your own custom ROM where you removed the wireless alerts module. Even in standard GrapheneOS/LineageOS you cannot turn it off.
>>107094176I wouldn't want to turn this off, but I didn't receive the alert.
>>107094185It's not gonna be worldwide at the same time, is it.Pretty much all developed countries are testing this shit now and you cannot even turn off the tests.
>>107094154usually some nog or spic in a custody dispute, those alerts are the first to be turned off
>>107094125This has literally never been used in my country for at least 30 years
>>107094125huh? in your country they don't inform you about the tests in advance? what causes this?>you cannot turn this offflight mode?
>>107094426Yeah, they do, so what? They still do them>flight mode?Not the same
>>107094125You can turn this off. I did. Amber got lost one too many times some week so I said fuck her and turned off all the alerts.
>>107094465We don't have those amber alerts in Europe anyway. But the national/presidential level alerts you cannot turn off anywhere. If they want to send an alert that you cannot turn off, they can.
>>107094154kek
>>107094487>But the national/presidential level alerts you cannot turn off
>>107094487>>107094712fuck, image didn't attach
>>107094712>>107094733Again, this option does nothing if they want you to receive it. Look up how this system works, it's baked in. Unless you've got a 10 year old phone
>>107094125works on my machine
>>107094761You've got a pretty slider that doesn't work. I have the same one. Doesn't do anything by design though. It might stop some alerts but not the ones that bypass this.
>>107094756I'm aware that they are capable of forcing such an alert through even with it set to off but I have never received one to date, which is good enough for me
>>107094426You can't turn it off on most phones, you have to disconnect a radio receiver of some kind to turn it offAnother reason to avoid arm turds
>>107094787I've never had an alert since I've disabled them years ago.
>>107094125Get an international phone model, they can be disabled completely in them
>regularly get one>trained to ignore itEvery fucking timeStop doing this shit.
>>107094816Most developed countries are rolling out this shit now or in the near future, with test alerts that cannot be disabled. They only started like a year ago here. I'm guessing in the US it's done on a state/local level.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EU-Alert
>>107094843lol fucking europe
>>107094125In germany we get prepared a few days before this stuff happens so nobody is shocked, they tell us in the news and the radio etc.
>>107094861A quick search shows that the US does them too. I'm guessing all the people not receiving them here are still using an original Moto G or Nexus or their mom's handmedown iPhone 5.>>107094881I still sucks
>>107094893>I still sucksyeah it does. I remember when I drove to work and forgot my mobile in the car, it was hammering for a few hours lmao, wonder what the people were thinking
>>107094911Shit it doesn't automatically turn off after a while? Didn't even know this
>>107094924nah it was blasting when I went to my car haha I heard it from a good distance
>>107094893>A quick search shows that the US does them too. I'm guessing all the people not receiving them here are still using an original Moto G or Nexus or their mom's handmedown iPhone 5.I am >>107094733and >>107094788my phone is Pixel 9 Pro, previously a Pixel 6, and I have never received one.
airplane mode blocks this, don't let retards tell you otherwise
>>107094962I'm on pixel 8 and haven't gotten them since before pixelthough my pic doesn't have presidential alerts >>107094761 so I suspect they're still there.
>>107094125test alerts make sense. if you missed an actual alert because shit was broken you'd be pissed (and maybe dead)>>107094154this is the annoying one. i'm sorry some kid got snatched 6 hours away, but my phone GPS hasn't changed in hours. at least only alert phones that aren't sitting at home and are on the move.
>>107094154lmfao
Pretty sure if it's a separate application (usually is in my experience) you can just adb disable it
Imagine being so autistic you shut off emergency alerts.
>>107094125How does this dogshit even work in the first place?
>>107094426This. In what fucking 3rd world shithole do you have to live to not have set in stone dates for these tests?
do people genuine defend this on /g/? lmfao
>>107094487>But the national/presidential level alerts you cannot turn off anywhere.Ontario uses those for custody disputes.
>>107094125what the fuckhow am i supposed to look my sister in the eye now
>>107094125
>>107095222I shut off every alert and notification I can for everything on every device. They're irritating. A computer does not get to interrupt me.
>>107094125>He doesn't control his own phone operating system!HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>107094733This here, just turn it off bro
>be me>be holland>monday>noon>weeeeeeeeeeooooooaaaah weeeeeeeeeeeooooooaaaah
>>107094881>Used to have the infrastructure and civil service to do proper public warnings and respond to emergencies>Reunite with east Germany and let the states handle it>States dismantle all of it for budgetary reasons>Multiple disasters with no way to quickly respond to them>Now forced to rely on jank ass cell phone warning systems that vary between useless (if you don't hear it or don't have a phone with you), annoying and outright dangerousIt's all so tiresome.
>>107094154Shit man, it do be like that sometimes.
>>107094125Just turn it off.I turned all that shit off on my hpone and never get those alerts/alarms.I don't remember how tho.
>>107095908Listen here you bill-mutha duck. you only have your show cause of me. get this through your head you bill mutha fucker. you only exist because of me. thats the only reason. without me personally, every bird will take a piece of your duck ass.
>>107094125I kinda miss the alarms we used to get. Super comfy to live through a major happening.
>>107094154>same nameIt's almost always custody drama.
>>107095908I only glanced at the thumbnail and thought it was a strangely colored pig (facing the right)
>>107094843It says on your link that test alerts are opt-out. Maybe it's an implementation issue?
>>107094125you can turn it off on android.
>>107094205>all developed countries are testing this shit nowMobile emergency messages have been a thing for like a decade or two. It's nothing new.
>>107095897softy
>>107094125In Taiwan it's pretty common, maybe 10 per year... we have this for earthquakes, floods, typhoons and air defense drills but last year picrel made me consider immediate suicide. Turned out it wasn't a nuke but a misclassification from the early warning system due to a Chinese satellite launch
