I remember the first time to have this message was at my first time using CERN lxplus during my undergrad. I was worried that people will think I am stupid to try "sudo apt-get" there. It was a mistake as I had several terminal sessions and forgot which one was the local.
Anyway fast forward today. I know the answer to the question to whom usually this notification gets sent. They forward it via SMTP server to the person on computing shift (at least for some of the experiments) based on the experiment this person (who tried sudo) account belongs too. probably also some IT email.
Anyway it is stressful for new and young people. but honestly I never read them. I have email rule to put them inside specific folder I don't usually open.
