Millions of UK mobile phones receive test of new national alert system

Did the emergency alert test go to plan?

Millions of phones across the UK sounded with a siren on Sunday as part of a test for a new national emergency alert system.

The loud alarm was planned to ring at 3pm on all devices that were using 4G and 5G networks in the UK.

Just a test to see how many of us are still gullible...

I've got a super high tech Chinese phone that isn't even sold in Europe. I think that's why I didn't get one. Kinda happy the government don't have access to my phone, sucks that the Chinese are probably spying on my through my camera though. Jokes on them, 99% of the footage will be me scrolling through YouTube while taking a shit

I also got one even though I'm an exchange student from abroad and I don't have a UK phone number

Did anyone over the fighting age receive one? It seemed to have been all the people of fighting age who got one when I was in the pub yesterday
