  1. There are four main points to remember about Cell Broadcast. • Uses the ‘Cell Broadcast’ (Area Information) feature that most mobiles already have built in; no need to build anything. • ‘Downlink-only’ true ‘Broadcast’ means No limit to scale; can talk to hundreds of millions at one time will not crash the networks. Uses capacity not taken by calls, so is immune to failure due to overloading as always happens during disasters. • We can target individual ‘cells’ (Towers) so it is geo-specific. You can tell one village to evacuate and another to stay where they are. • We can secure it so that spammers hackers and spoofers cant get in, only authorized government officials.
