On Sunday 23 April 2023, there will be a national test of the UK Emergency Alerts service.

EMERGENCY ALERT - The mobile phone emergency siren will be tested on the entire population.

But worryingly, all other functions on the phone be disabled by this alert, until citizens acknowledge it.

Well that’s some major government control right there πŸ‘€
