Just a reminder that on the 4th of October, the US government will be testing their Emergency Broadcast System to check its compliance on the 5G band.

This will not, despite cries of shock and fear, cause a zombie apocalypse. But for those in a dangerous situation, domestically or otherwise, it can be extremely threatening, because many need to make use of hidden/burner phones which their abusers don't know about.

(Abusive family or significant others have a tendency to install tracking devices and similar spyware on any devices known to them.)

For those in an abusive situation, please stay safe, and if you have a phone or similar device of that nature, please take whatever steps you can to disable it if you need to keep it hidden. Some information can be found here.
