Every device that would be capable of doing anything also has an OS. That OS is likely shared amongst multiple device 
models. 


The only involvement ISPs should have is ensuring that they have proper IP <-> geolocation information and your 
standard IP forwarding principles. ISPs should not be involved in the processing or design of any of this. It simply 
doesn't involve them.

It all depends on not OSes but devices. 

Any device with speaker should produce audible alert and any 
device with display should produce visible alert. 

As devices are identified at the IP layer, the alert must be 
distributed at the IP layer, that is, by ISPs.
