Bemore Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Personally, I will be going into a very populated place to witness everyone's phone go off at the same time. It's going to be very surreal. Could potentially be the only time you get to hear it without it being something bad (wether you believe it's for genuine use or fear inducing) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LastOneLeftInTheCounty Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 I can see it all now- yes the test will happen, people will discuss it’s pros and cons, thousands of videos will be uploaded to YouTube showing the alert in public, like a novelty. Then it’ll go quiet for a while, most will forget about it. All of a sudden there’ll be a rare earthquake in the Atlantic Ocean triggering a tsunami headed for our coast. The alert will sound, people will be warned and will get to relative safety in time, except the ones who switched off their notifications. Cue national mourning then debate over further controls/ digital ID and more and more government power over peoples digital devices/lives. The ‘conspiracy theorists’ who switched their alerts off will be lambasted and ostracised just like the unvaxxed. Yawn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewok Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 it's the 'you have to acknowledge it before you can use your phone again', bit that REALLY set my spider senses off. the one they did (it was the beginning of lockdown), you didn't. I heard a weird noise, didn't think much of it (apart from maybe from the street or something), and it was only when I used my phone (made a call, I think?), that I saw a text message, which I read later. you didn't have to acknowledge nish before you could use your phone again. My personal theory is that they're installing something on people's devices (will happen to tablets too apparently a friend said, but not sure if that's true?), and that's why you have to 'acknowledge' the alarm, which will install it - some kind of trojan horse software for some nefarious purpose? may be unrelated, but my rarely have the data on phone has been going bonkers the last few days - keeps switching itself off then on again. it's happened around eight times - the data comes on too, which is how I know - and I 'caught' it switching off / on again a couple of times last night, so I just keep switching the data off again (the emergency broadcast settings are fine though - all stay off). wifi / weirdness next door with my neighbours camera too - yesterday he chided her for it not being on, she was puzzled, cos she thought it was, and hadn't turned it off, made sure it was turned on, and today it turned itself off again. we all think it's to do with Sunday 3pm, but I / we may be overthinking. I'm just letting the battery run down now - and it can stay that way until Monday. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LastOneLeftInTheCounty Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Fujitsu caused the Post Office Horizon Scandal and now has been helping to develop the UK government’s emergency alert system BY RHODA WILSON ON APRIL 22, 2023 • ( 4 COMMENTS) This Sunday, the UK government is scheduled to test a new emergency alert system. Fujitsu, who is still under inquiry for the British Post Office Horizon Scandal, was awarded a contract to help develop the system. Lord Arbuthnot of Edrom who has been campaigning for 13 years to ensure the sub-postmasters receive justice asked in the House of Lords why Fujitsu had been granted the contract and other peers questioned the morality of awarding Fujitsu the contract while the Post Office inquiry was pending. https://expose-news.com/2023/04/22/fujitsu-caused-the-post-office-horizon-scandal-and-now/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s weird I’ve been having probs with my phone too, I always have Bluetooth off but it keeps switching itself on, and like you said too I also caught it switching on yesterday. I’ve got all my alerts switched off but will leave the phone on tomorrow to see if any settings are overridden. If anything does get overridden I’ll be suing apple and uk gov for invading my privacy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway I find it suspicious.... Test of what actually? BTW same thing happening in Poland. My hubby says they are preparing for the war but truly said it's hilarious idea...

Mr Crabtree Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 5 hours ago, webtrekker said: My current standpoint ... None of these governments want to get involved in a debate about vaccination deaths and immunity from liability. This would bring about their downfall and the prosecution/lynching of all involved from Gates to Schwab to Big Pharma. They need to shut down people like Andrew Bridgen. They also need to push through the WHO's Pandemic Treaty. So, bearing this in mind, they need to sway the populace away from such dangerous ideas, and what better way to achieve this than to arrange another Plandemic, worse than the last, or a critical terrorist event, or even a nuclear war? Enter ... Alarmageddon! A surefire way to achieve maximum distraction through maximum fear. An Alarmageddon? stuff this people, Armageddon out of here pronto, follow me, the last one to the shelter is an ash hole! , webtrekker, webtrekker, wait up mate, I gotta go back for me tortoise! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete675 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Loud ear piercing noises remind me of the old Time Machine movie, when the Eloi went off to be slaughtered after the alarm started. Perhaps the government could use it for something similar : 'Alert. Alert. Your 12th booster is now due!' 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
