I have a long commute in and out of a large city. Since I spend so much time on the road, I always try to get the details of Amber Alert notifications to be on the lookout for vehicles used in abductions. I guess I can't do that anymore since Twitter requires an account to see Amber Alerts. Hopefully my state finds another platform to post them.
In my area, amber alerts are delivered via Localized Emergency Alerts, and clicking on it takes you to the Highway Patrol Twitter page.
That's crazy.
I was going to say it's crazy that your local police use a private service like Twitter, but I guess the phone companies are a private service too.
Yeah, but you're right in that phone companies are a public utility, so the government has more say in what they can do.
