Today, after receiving SIX zarking Amber alerts between 8 PM and 11 PM local time, I suddenly have a strong opinion. Talk about alert fatigue. The sixth alert I received could have been for the world ending. I still wouldn't have looked at my phone. Thankfully I can adjust the default setting to disable everything except "presidental emergency alerts"...whatever that is. As long as I can turn it off completely, I'm fine with people baking that crap into their tech. I still want my wired Nest smoke alarm to be able to pick up NWS alerts though. -A
