Californians Say X Blocked Them From Viewing Amber Alert About Missing 14-Year-Old
Californians Say X Blocked Them From Viewing Amber Alert About Missing 14-Year-Old
Many people reported they hit a screen preventing them from seeing the alert unless they signed in.
You're viewing a single thread.
In Switzerland there is an app called Alertswiss which gets published by the government. They use it for critical alerts and you can also use it to see open warnings and where in the country there might be stuff happening.
Just do the same @California
If you think you'll be able to get Americans, ho already do not trust the government, to download an app on their phones made by the government, well I have a bridge to sell you.
It's amazing how these very unregulated tech companies that have been proven time and time again to steal user data and mess up have this blind trust from the public.
They very much do not. No one trusts them. But they have other value that people are not willing to forego.
Also, have you seen any of the official government websites? They're buttgarbage. Go renew an amateur radio license online and tell me if anyone would intentionally install software designed like that on their devices.
The UK's won several awards for design. It's very easy to use. It would be nice to see something like that for the US.
It's open source.
just deploy it verbatim, and change your laws and taxes to work with what the web services do!
My city of only 20k people in Texas has a similar app. Not sure what's going on in California
Californian civil servants who do software engineering work are profoundly lazy and incompetent. I know because I walked away from two different pensions doing this because of my coworkers.
