Why? All we need is people driving down the highway at high speed and that dumbass alert racket goes off all of a sudden.

Yet another federal agency we do not need butting into our lives. NO.

These alerts can be turned off. At least on my Samsung old phone.

Big Brother in action. A reminder that government actually does control every aspect of our lives.

It used to be the Emergency Action Notification System.
I forgot what it was called before that.

Uh huh.
They are planning something to cause great fear and panic.

The ‘regular’ alerts are ridiculous — my cellphone screeches for Amber Alerts that are up to 500 miles away.
Cable TV occasionally has EBS alerts.
The city tests their alert sirens about every 3 months.
Car alarms go off frequently.
The more ‘alerts’, the less people pay attention.
Other than incoming nuclear, why would we need a national alert? “This is a nationwide alert: You have 15 minutes to kiss your a$$ goodbye, but get your COVID jab NOW!”

Yeah you can. My phone is about a month old and I can turn off wireless emergency alerts.
To: EEGator
Maybe they can bring you back in a med bed. 😉
