As long as they tell you about it when you buy the phone, and there's an easy way to opt out, I don't see the problem. And after some time, people will just know that it is turned on by default on new phones.
- LoganCale 13y agoThey activated it suddenly in the past couple months on most existing phones without asking, under Congressional orders. And there is no way to opt out of Presidential alerts.
- gpvos 13y agoOK, that's not good. The system they are introducing here, NL-Alert (which still has some problems), is purely opt-in. And only for things that would make the air sirens go off. I wonder what kind of alert a Presidential alert could be.
