Government To Issue Terror Alerts On Facebook
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security will begin issuing terror alerts via Facebook and Twitter.
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security will begin issuing terror alerts via Facebook and Twitter starting the end of this month.
Color-coded alerts will be a thing of the past, and instead of five different warning levels, only two will remain — elevated and imminent — and the public will only hear about them some of the time.
These changes would all go into effect by April 27, according to the Associated Press.
AP learned of these changes from a 19-page document from the Department of Homeland Security, detailing the new strategy for terror alerts.
