[NNagain] [Bloat] OT: National test of the emergency broadcast system

[Livingood, Jason]

The technology used for these alerts is really ancient. It'd be nice to see these alerts move to IP networks in some manner - perhaps by requiring streaming sites to carry them (since the % of legacy cable video service is getting so low).

I was really comforted at what appeared to me at least, to be a very
successful test of the USA emergency broadcast system. The alarms went
off in multiple places in the coffee shop in Santa Cruz within a few
seconds of each other, and while startled, everyone looked at the
message, and went back to work.


I have been wondering how far along shakealert.org has got? While I
was not there for the big one in 1989, having a robust alerting
feature like this everywhere, would help.
