Just think, at some point in future, you may be tending your roses, when suddenly there's a 10 second blast of screeching and all your neighbours start legging it. You'll be left scratching your head until the big wave arrives!

April 23, 20233 yr Author Huaweis will probably be used against their owners as part of the attack! Ever seen "Cell'?
April 23, 20233 yr Felt a bit let down by it. Wanted more. The Bill theme tune would be good. Edited April 23, 20233 yr by tomski
April 23, 20233 yr My Mum said hers didn't go off she has got a Old Peoples phone one less for the Bunker
April 23, 20233 yr Was in Whitstable, thousands went off, the dogs didn't like it. That did make me chuckle.
April 23, 20233 yr It took 10 minutes to get round the pub I was in. By that time people were indeed switching it off.

April 24, 20233 yr One of mine went of the other didn't.. Can imagine HMP's being hectic with phones going off left right and centre.
April 24, 20233 yr Adults, actual grown men and women, have been having meltdowns on social media about this for weeks.

I heard somebody waffling on about it in the pub on Saturday, he was going to disable it, as he wasn't happy about the Government having access to his mobile - he was under the illusion that the "event" was so they could quickly track exactly where everybody was at that given moment in time. I'm not sure anybody had the heart to tell him that if you're phone is on, no matter what you do to it, you can be tracked.

Or that absolutley nobody on earth - let alone the government - gives a fuck where he is or what beer he's spending his money on. I bet he opened up facebook ten minutes later to be bombarded with adverts based on what he'd been talking about and didn't even notice. Why do folk think anyone gives a fuck about them? Pay your tax, tick the voting box and fuck off.

Pay your tax, tick the voting box and fuck off. 100% this I'm sure that somebody at GCHQ is really interested in exactly what he was doing at 2:30pm on Sunday (at a guess, he was playing dominos in the "lounge" bar, and drinking a pint of Guinness......as he does every Sunday, without fail)
April 24, 20233 yr Author The number of folk moaning that they didn't get it- that's why it was a test ffs. Then the usual bells complaining about "big brother" interference. Even some complaining that old folks are scared, especially if they didn't get it. Get a fucking grip.
