    Yeah if where’s the thrill if you’re just gonna be notified of nukes & nados like a wuss

    Also personally, prefer a 0.00% chance of finding a wandering elderly person or abducted kid to 0.00001%

    (If either feature were frequently abused that would change my calculus, or maybe if I had severe anxiety(?) or a critical sleep schedule or something)

    Edit: I mean this more lightheartedly than it sounds

      if you’re going to get nuked there’s little that can be done, missing people are too common because many areas of the US do them on a county level leading to messages about missing people that are from more than 50 miles away. Probably part of why I hate them is that during a poorly coordenated school lockdown the national alert test happened and it terrified just about everyone in the school as every phone (even the silenced ones) blasted alarms while the teachers didn’t know if the drill was a drill.
