Should Netflix and Hulu give you emergency alerts?

Canada made a lot of improvements with its alert implementation.  It got 
to see all the things the U.S. did wrong. Unfortuantely, Canada also 
copied some wrong lessons from the the U.S. version.

South Korea probably has the most ludicrous emergency alerts in the world.

While improvements are needed, the various alert systems have saved 
people's lives.
