Twitter is not a public service/utility. You shouldn't rely on it for important, factual informatilon.
it should be treated as a public service when government entities use it as a means to communicate with the public.
The irony of having a paywall in the news site when discussing another site's login wall.
Interesting, I can read it without an account.
Don't all smart phones pretty much have amber alert reception built in natively at this point?
Yep, turned off that shit the moment I get a new phone. Like what do they expect me to do? Drive around playing vigilante?
As someone with bad noise sensitivity, I better be seconds away from a nuclear suntan when my phone makes that goddamn noise.
Yes but at least in California, details are posted by CHP (or maybe other law enforcement organizations) on Twitter. Every time I’ve clicked an Amber Alert notification, it sent me straight to Twitter.
My point is, not all the relevant information is posted in the notification you received on your device.
