Lauren WeinsteinMany government agencies are expressing concerns about how to communicate with the public without Twitter, especially in emergencies. Of course, it was a bad idea to become dependent on Twitter to such an extent in the first place, and no matter what happens, this needs rethinking.

@lauren Given they were able to send everyone a text (In the UK) during COVID, I'm sure they've got that covered. 🙂
@dick_turpin You might be surprised how many people don't use text messages, or even carry devices capable of receiving them all the time. The level of SMS spam and phishing has driven many people to just turn them off.
@lauren I wish they would. That's all I see is mobiles glued to people's hands. 🤷♂️
