Got an amber alert the other day. It linked to twitter to see more info including pics of the victim. I don't have an account and couldn't view it on mobile without jumping through a bunch of hoops. Wonder how much less effective it makes those alerts that you have to have an acct to see who was fucking kidnapped.

The amount of news sites where they post Twitter comments on there stories but you need a sign in to view. What's the point of a public announcement service if you can't find out without handing a company your information.
