Was the "Presidential Alert" test that reached 225 million phones yesterday a preview of an Orwellian nightmare?

People are definitely only worried about it because of the word presidential. I doubt it was even written or sent by Trump. It didn't bother me any more than the dumb Amber alerts I used to get for places that were nowhere near me.
fair enough
If I get one more like "EVERYONE TURN OFF CNN RIGHT NOW, IT'S FAKE. SAD." then I will probably be a lot more concerned. ha. Or if they make it mandatory to get updates about his Twitter feed or something, I'd been seeing if I can still maybe sign up for a one-way trip to Mars.
Well, we should probably ask Obama considering it was enacted under him in 2016.
My phone wasn't affected by this. I wonder if it was because I put it in "Airplane Mode" or because it was from Google Fi
