    There are government text messages and local websites and all sorts of ways of reaching people. Unfortunately, X probably reaches ten times as many people. I think a diversified approach makes sense.

    That being said, us gov has sent the text messages and that seems to be the best way to do it. Everyone has a phone. And if you don’t, then you like to live on the edge.

      All cell phones connected to a Japanese network received a notification regardless of their carrier, brand or what apps they installed.

      This is already way better than whatever reach X provides.
