And radios and TVs DO have emergency broadcast systems that interrupt programming.

I totally agree that my analogy was still not perfect, but it's the best I could do using cars as a basis of comparison. It's certainly a hell of a lot closer than a law that requires you to provide a breath sample at a road stop when there's no cause to think you've been drinking. That's not even apples to oranges, it's... I don't know, apples to staplers.

I don't know what this means either... the government could, in the future, push other notifications onto our phones that we may or may not want to see? I'm still not exactly shaking in my boots at the thought of that dystopic society.
