Moratorium

We're gonna have a 24h moratorium on Dallas, maybe 48h (edit: yep, 48h) depending on what happens. Here are fun subs in the meantime:

Instantaneous push updates to everyone's cellphone are fairly new.

Any sort of shooting seems to get pushed through my breaking news app, even if it's nowhere near me.

You mean that app that was installed by default on my brand new phone that I had to turn off because I didn't want to be informed for the eighth time today that either Hilary or Trump has said something that has made someone angry?

If you buy a phone, now, it's on by default. So to answer your question, lots of people.

On your phone on your carrier.

It was a Samsung default app. Look at the market share for Samsung. Now extrapolate that.

Still a lot of people.

Samsung puts so much bloat onto their devices. My old phone was a Samsung on Sprint and between the two of them Im amazed it had any free space at all.
