Yeah, I also read it the opposite way as the author wrote it: 469 people were warned by Google after their government failed to warn them.

It's not Google's job to track and warn people about earthquakes, their job is to make sure their alert system accepts/distributes government safety warnings, which to my knowledge works just fine.
