    AT&T to Load iPhones With Emergency Alerts From Obama – That You Can’t Switch Off

    AT&T to Load iPhones With Emergency Alerts From Obama – That You Can’t Switch Off

    Posted by Jim Hoft on Sunday, June 16, 2013, 1:17 AM


    Just in case you want more Obama in your life…
    AT&T is loading iPhones with emergency alerts from Barack Obama…
    That you can’t switch off.



    Engadget
    reported:

    AT&T has begun rolling out Wireless Emergency Alerts updates for iPhone 4S and 5, so you won’t be the last folks to know if the entire northern hemisphere is about to be covered in ice à la Day After Tomorrow.

    You’ll receive a notification from the carrier when your update is ready, but only if you’re using iOS 6.1 or higher.

    Once installed, AMBER and Emergency alerts are automatically sent to your phone unless you switch them off via Settings.

    However, should you be tired of Obama, just know that there’s no way to switch off Presidential alerts.

    So now Barack can track your calls and send you messages, too.

    Don't reward the criminal actions of millions of illegal aliens by giving them citizenship.

    Tech upgrades stalled

    The effort to start using Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEAs) began nearly 10 years ago but has been besieged by technical challenges and bureaucratic red tape.

    In the wake of the failed federal response to Hurricane Katrina, former President George W. Bush ordered a sweeping technological overhaul of the nation’s warnings for natural disasters and terrorist attacks . . .

    The alert plan was approved by Congress in 2006 under the Warning Alert and Response Network Act.
