"A new national alert system is set to begin in New York City that will alert the public to emergencies via cell phones.What if I do NOT want to hear what the President has to say?
Presidential and local emergency messages as well as Amber Alerts would appear on cell phones equipped with special chips and software.
Verizon and AT&T, the nation’s largest cell phone carriers, are already on board. Consumers would be able to opt out of all but those presidential messages."
