And Then, I’m Getting Ready...

   Ready to do wot then? Well, so, it seems we’ll be getting an emergency test alert message on our not so smart phones soon. Not sure about this but I think – something wot’s getting harder to do with every passing day – you have to respond or your phone won’t work ‘till you do. If this is indeed the case, I hope y’all, like me, are drafting a suitable text response wot will let ‘em know exactly wot you think of ‘em and their nannying nuttery.
    Regards a text response, should that be available, please remember to fill it with punctuation and capitalisation so’s to strike fear right back at ‘em, okay?
   Oh, no point is there as it’s obviously not an alert from a human is it, rather some AI thingy. And that would be a far cry from Intelligence but rather Artificial Intrusion.
   Just preparing us for, ‘Caution; you’re approaching the monthly total allowance on your State Credit Card.’ you think?

Water happins if the phone is switched off? Or is that unthinkable ?

Mark In Mayenne,
I'm sure I saw somewhere that if your phone is off - as you say, unthinkable - when switched back on the 'message' will still need to be acknowledged before the phone will work correctly; whatever correctly means.

Strewth - that's a bit more likely than I'm comfortable with. Spend it now seems to be a good idea.

A K Haart,
Oh, come on! It's just a conspiracy theory and how many of those come to pass as fact? Sorry? How many? Oh...
