There are early signs that the emergency alert is turning into yet another tedious culture war ✒️ alan_p_martin for ipaperviews
Alan Martin: ‘This is, after all, an anonymous system similar to those used in the United States, Canada, Japan and the Netherlands’
Unless you’re terminally contrarian, the answer is probably “yes”. Ignorance may be bliss, but it’s hard to maintain while waiting 12 hours in A&E. But throw in a bit of technology – and the presence of the UK government – and suddenly there are a lot more takers for “out of sight, out of mind”.on almost everyone’s smartphones, even if they’re on silent.
If you’re like me, you’ll have read about this and shrugged your shoulders. This is, after all, an anonymous system similar to those used in the United States, Canada, Japan and the Netherlands. It’s both attention-grabbing and instant, so it’s far more practical than the easily ignorable SMS messages sent out during the pandemic, which literally took days to filter through to everyone alongside so many spam texts.
