While American government officials may not have intended to create a hellscape in which people have cough up their data to actively malevolent tech companies to access information about natural disasters and boil water advisories, we've ended up in this dark place anyway.

In 2025, if you're posting vital information exclusively to Twitter and Facebook, then you're guaranteeing that a whole lot of impacted people are simply never going to see it. Especially the very young and the very old. And they likely don't even know that Facebook and Twitter are where they should be looking.

Little Flying Robots · We Have to Stop Using Facebook and X to Warn People About DisastersIn the early morning hours of July 4th, as the Guadalupe River reached catastrophic heights, city officials in Kerr County, Texas turned to an all-too familiar mechanism for getting the word out to area residents: Facebook.
