the first national government alert test will be conducted this Thursday afternoon at 2:18 Eastern time. this means that all capable cell phones will receive this test if they are turned on and connected to a cell tower. You can't opt out of these alerts and they go off even if your phone is on silent from what I read. this would be crazy if you're in a crowded public place and everyone's cell phone goes off at the same time. I've been in Walmart when Amber alerts would go off and it can get loud. They say this is going to be a different sound, so I'm curious to see what it's going to sound like. Whatever it is I'm sure it will be attention getting.
