testing the alert system. because they developed whatever so they could send out messages to people about changes in alert levels for various stages of lockdown.
then they used it for a tsunami warning. I think it was mostly to test it. to see if they could send out targeted alerts.
the issue is where you draw the line on that. I mean... how many alerts is sort of... before people start leaving their phones behind. people won't keep them close if they are obnoxious with alerts.
there hasn't been one since. I think someone got a talking to about there not being too many alerts...
