Hi,

This year's test of the U.S. national emergency alert includes 
something for ISPs and network operators.

So, this "worked". Despite me ensuring that my settings for Amber Alerts, Emergency Alerts, Public Safety Alerts, and 
Test Alerts are all off, my phone went nuts.

Makes me wonder what I have to do to opt out of this. We all remember what happened in Hawaii.

Thanks,

Sabri
