It was useful for local news. E.g., when I saw police helicopter that seemed to be doing a low altitude search pattern about 300 m away, and a TV news helicopter hovering higher up in the same area, I wanted to know if this was something I needed to be concerned about. A quick search on Twitter and I found a recent tweet about gunfire in a store in that area and a shooter on the loose.
