Every phone and TV in the house just lit up with a "Weekly Test" of the EBS. This usually happens on Wednesday Morning. First time it has lit up every device.
Nothing here.
Rural hospital in WV was notified yesterday.
Not mine, I turn off all that Amber Alert messaging crap
Take control of your phones, peasants
Phone only here, not computer. TV and broadcast radio off, so can’t report on that.
Thanks. That would explain it.
Mine is turned on due to wildfire danger in my local area. We had 7 fires within five miles of my home last Sumer. One was over 30,000 acres and got uncomfortably close to my place.
The weekly test is always timed during Rush’s radio show.
It’s more than annoying.
KLBJ-AM out of Austin.
“Take control of your phones, peasants”
It’s not ‘your’ phone.
Don’t believe me? Apply 512 bit or higher encryption to it and expect a knock on your door to remind you of who actually owns the device.
Why would anyone live wheres there is fire all the time?
(Because people tell us that here on the Gulfcoast),
Lol i can see a a cane coming for days and days...and i have wheels
Jibber jabber
You can turn off annoying notifications easy enough, instead of just whining about it
Because we don’t have hurricanes and tornadoes! Actually last year was typical for 2020. Worst fire season in decades around here.
“You can turn off annoying notifications easy enough”
Now turn off the telemetry and enable your phone to select rotating cell phone towers to prevent your location from being triangulated. Then apply 512+ encryption to your data at rest.
Watch what happens.
I dont care, im not hiding from anyone, im not a terrorist
I dont live in fear, my tee-vee tracks the movies i watch, i dont care
Amazon tracks the purchases i make, i dont care
Get some
Morning,
Just upgraded tv sat. box. The installer said google
is tracking everything they can. When I spotted a microphone on the remote the scotch tape came out.
Five layers should do it.

Morning! Good idea keeping Google out of your life!
Nothing here.
Never had it go off on a phone.
It a daily interruption on the tv though. Sometimes multiple times a day. So annoying.
“I dont care, im not hiding from anyone, im not a terrorist”
If you’re posting on FR then the Democrats think you’re a terrorist.
