I disabled these alerts permenantly on my android phone. Best 15 minutes I ever spent.

But now you can't receive useful alerts like "gry Toyt" (was a real alert that went out).

As Lord Maximus Farquaad magnanimously declared, "Some of you may die, but it is a sacrifice I am willing to make."

Abbreviation for "grey Toyota"?

Of course, but that's every other car on the road.. No license plate number makes this meaningless

Not even a location. Every amber alert I've gotten has been for towns I've never heard of.

Not always, had one last night that was from a town a mere 30 miles away. And due the the sparse population density here, that like an alert 2 blocks away in your big city. And it is possible I have taught one or two other children from that family in past years. Or I might not have. Hard to tell with the information available to me anymore.

[-] BleatingZombie@lemmy.world 0 points 9 months ago

What do you think I have? Eyes and some minor consideration for children or their family?
