AusAlert! Should We Be Alarmed? · The Slippery Slope

0:10
Hi Jay Fallon, thanks for listening to The Slippery Slope.
0:13
So today I want to talk about Oz Alert.
0:15
There's a few videos getting around social media really in my
0:22
mind fear mongering in in some ways, but people talking about
0:26
things and not, I don't think they're really considering
0:30
everything about it. And we've got these people.
0:33
This seems to be a thing, especially in Australia, I think
0:37
as people want to bury their head in the sand and all these
0:40
people putting out this advice, what you should do, take out
0:43
your SIM, turn your phone off, blah, blah, blah.
0:45
Let's look at we'll look at one or two of these videos and then
0:48
we'll go through the information that Oz alert on their website
0:51
that they put out and have a bit of a, a talk about what I'll
0:55
tell you what I think about it, but also what I think we should
0:59
do about it, if anything. Let's have a look.
1:02
Check out some of these videos on on this.
1:05
OK, an update on Oz Alert. It's fucking freezing where I
1:08
live this morning. I know I look like the biggest
1:10
trooper in the comments of my previous video.
1:13
I learned some good information. So number one, you can turn the
1:16
Oz Alert notifications off in your phone.
1:19
However, I don't think it applies to this one that's
1:22
coming on the 27th of July. I think this one will still go
1:26
off. It will override those
1:28
notification settings, but still go and turn them off.
1:30
So for iPhone and Android just go to your settings
1:34
notifications, scroll right down to the bottom and you should see
1:39
a little section at the bottom that says Oz alert and there's
1:43
like 3 toggles there. Turn them all off.
1:45
When the fuck did they put that? So sorry about the swearing, I
1:50
just thought I'd just leave it in there.
1:51
Just, you know, this is what she's put up.
1:53
Look, First off, turning off notifications as if this is
1:58
going to actually do anything at all.
2:02
Will it actually do anything? Some of the, I want you to
2:04
listen to the advice that this lady is giving and think what
2:07
will this actually achieve? OK, and what are you trying to
2:11
achieve? I want to look at this from a
2:14
perspective of, of undergoing an operation, like from a policing
2:19
perspective. You've got an idea of something
2:21
happening and you're looking at it, but you need as much
2:24
information as you can possibly glean.
2:27
OK, so that's how I'm gonna be looking at it.
2:29
Let's check. Keep going for what she's
2:31
saying. At there for starters.
2:33
I didn't know that was there. Sneaky fucking bastards aren't
2:35
they? If that option isn't there
2:37
because for some people I don't think it shows there, you can
2:41
turn off your phone or put it into flight mode and you won't
2:44
receive the alert. But if you turn your phone back
2:48
on or turn it off flight mode within 24 hours it will still
2:52
come through. There was also chat about if you
2:54
took your SIM card out what would happen.
2:56
I'm not sure to be honest. Best steps to take if you want
2:59
to avoid it basically is to turn off all them notifications in
3:03
your phone and then on the 27th of July at about 1:00 PM turn
3:07
your phone off or turn it into flight mode and then don't put
3:09
it back on until that 24 hour period has passed.
3:13
I just want to say how fucking epic it is too to see so many
3:16
people who are on the same page. It is so uplifting and it just
3:20
makes me think that we are really fucking winning this
3:24
shit. Big big changes are happening
3:26
spiritually in terms of the consciousness of humanity
3:29
raising and people waking up and realising the truth.
3:32
And honestly, if you are one of the people in the comments
3:34
telling me that I'm crazy or saying things like it's not that
3:38
deep, read the comments from the people who are over in the UK,
3:41
in Europe, where this has been happening for the last few
3:43
years. Little things like this is how
3:45
it starts. And look how fucking cooked
3:47
those places are. Now that is where Australia is
3:49
headed. Fucking good luck to you when
3:51
the world looks like that fucking movie Equilibrium,
3:53
because that's what's going to be like one day and you'll be
3:56
fucking stuck in it. I'll be out here in the Bush,
3:58
only contactable by pigeon, OK? And.
4:04
OK, she finishes off with. She'll be out in the Bush, only
4:07
contactable, you know, by carrier pigeon, whatever.
4:11
So yeah, we've got all these posts.
4:12
I'm gonna check out another check out what is what's this
4:15
guy saying? Don't want the government in
4:18
your phone for this emergency alarm?
4:21
Turn it off. OK.
4:29
OK, so let's have a look at what the actual website says.
4:33
Understanding AUS alerts and the national test.
4:36
I'll go through all of this, look at all the information that
4:38
they've provided. Keep in mind that what that Lady
4:42
in that previous video was talking about, we'll have a look
4:44
at, we'll come to a few conclusions.
4:47
I think it's understanding Oz Alert in the national test.
4:51
Okay, so in October we're launching a new national
4:54
emergency warning system, Oz Alerts.
4:58
It's all in the name, people. It's all in the name, okay.
5:00
Oz Alert will help inform Australians about local and
5:03
national disasters, will allow authorities to reach people fast
5:08
so Australians can act quickly to protect lives and property.
5:11
In June we successfully tested the Oz Alert system in non
5:14
communities across Australia. So it's already been tested.
5:18
This is just, they've got an operation going and they're just
5:20
running. They're just putting out probes
5:22
going there and it'll go further and further.
5:24
The probe gets wider and wider and then just checking if their
5:27
system works. OK, so they've already tested
5:32
it. 9 communities across Australia on Monday, the 27th of
5:36
July. This is the one that everyone on
5:37
social media is talking about, 27th of July.
5:39
We'll take the next step, testing the system nationally at
5:44
around 2:00 PM Australian Eastern Standard Time with the
5:46
test critical alert sent at the same time to all compatible
5:51
devices around the country. We recently busted some myths
5:54
about Oz Alert and I'll have a look at that for a second.
5:57
OK, so here's some facts. So one myth, only the newest
6:00
devices can receive Oz alerts. So it says Oz alerts work on
6:04
many mobile phones, tablets, and smartwatches.
6:07
Compatible devices don't need a working SIM.
6:12
It doesn't need a working SIM to receive alerts.
6:16
OS alerts are expected to work on your iPhone 11 and up running
6:20
the iOS 26.4 or later. Apple Watches SE 2 SE Three
6:26
Series 6 Android devices running Android 12 or later.
6:30
Older phones and phones that don't use iOS or Android may
6:34
still they may still receive OS alerts.
6:38
Apple iPads will not receive OS alerts.
6:43
Myth so 1 here fact updating your device software helps you
6:48
to be Oz alert ready so a myth you don't need to update your
6:51
device to receive Oz alerts so that's a myth fact you can
6:56
receive Oz alerts no matter what carrier you're with.
7:00
So the myth that's been get around you can only receive Oz
7:03
alerts sent by your telecommunications provider.
7:06
So Oz alert uses cell broadcast technology.
7:10
This is very important if you thinking you want to avoid all
7:13
this. OK.
7:14
It only uses cell broadcast technology, overactive 4G and 5G
7:18
mobile network. It is designed to be carrier
7:22
agnostic so you can receive alerts regardless of your
7:26
telecommunications provider. For example Telstra, Optus,
7:30
Vodafone. If your device is compatible and
7:33
can connect to a network, you can receive alerts even without
7:38
a working SIM, even without a working SIM.
7:42
So the another fact, we're testing how the AUS Alert system
7:45
works with assistive technology. So if you might have hearing
7:49
aids and all that, you know, these cochlear implants, things
7:53
like that and they all, they all connect, connect to Wi-Fi and
7:58
things like that sort of work even on Braille systems and AUS
8:01
Alert may wake your screen, vibrate and display a message
8:06
about the emergency. Make a loud siren like sound
8:10
which might be heard through compatible hearing aids or
8:13
cochlear implants. Read the message aloud if text
8:17
to speech is set on your mobile device and work with assistive
8:21
technologies such as refreshable Braille devices.
8:25
Testing is ongoing, feedback from users of Assistive
8:30
technology is valuable. Another fact, you can find
8:33
dedicated information and resources about the Oz Alert
8:36
system. Now I just want to go to the
8:39
next. They've got some some other
8:42
myths that they talk about here. I think this is very important.
8:48
Myth 1OZ Alert is just another SMS. So the myth is that Oz
8:52
Alert works the same way as text messages.
8:54
So the fact is Ozil it uses cell broadcast technology which works
8:58
very differently to SMS. Cell broadcast sends messages
9:03
directly from mobile towers. So from the towers OK to
9:08
compatible devices in a defined area.
9:11
This means messages arrive almost instantly.
9:15
Alerts still work when mobile networks are congested.
9:20
Messages appear like a system notification, not a text, and
9:24
alerts show on locked screens and during phone use because it
9:30
uses a dedicated channel. Myth 2.
9:34
You have to sign up or download an app.
9:36
People need to opt in. This is a myth.
9:38
Download something or register. Nah, no action is required.
9:42
They've already signed everyone up.
9:44
Myth 3 Ozalert tracks your location or personal data.
9:48
So from what I gather, this is what everyone is talking about.
9:51
This is what everyone thinks. Ozalert needs to know who you
9:57
are or where you are. So the fact is it does not
10:00
collect or store your mobile phone number or location.
10:05
It doesn't need to because they've already got all that
10:06
information. So cell broadcast works through
10:10
mobile towers, not GPS, not GPS or customer databases.
10:17
One of the Security benefits of Oz Alert is that no personal
10:21
data is required to send messages.
10:24
This helps protect you from scams.
10:26
So we'll come back to this in a second.
10:27
OK, so Oz Alert is run by the Australian government and is
10:32
safe and secure. Is that an oxymoron?
10:40
Anyway, only authorised emergency services organisations
10:44
and Australian government agencies can send those alerts.
10:47
So as we all know and we can trust, we can trust the
10:53
Australian Government. I personally absolutely have
10:56
absolute faith and trust in the Australian Government and I
11:00
absolutely trust that only authorised emergency services or
11:04
organisations and Australian government organisations, I
11:08
absolutely trust them. Absolutely.
11:11
Ozalert will never ask for personal or financial
11:14
information. OK, so let's go back here.
11:17
The cell broadcast works through mobile towers, not GPS or
11:20
customer databases. One of the secure Security
11:23
benefits, no personal data is required to send messages.
11:29
From from what I've read, it seems like, OK, they're not
11:32
going to store information, they're not going to store your
11:34
personal data. And they're saying only
11:38
authorised emergency service organisations and agencies can
11:43
send OS alerts. And it's run by the Australian
11:45
government. It doesn't mean that an
11:48
individual or an agency, someone working within an individual
11:52
working within an agency can't say, hey, we need to find we
11:57
need to find Jay Fallon. We're going to use this system.
12:01
And OK, we don't have his personal data because it's not
12:04
stored on the system. But we already know his personal
12:07
data. We haven't been able to track
12:08
him from from other ways. So let's use this.
12:12
I'm just saying this, this could still be used and to track.
12:17
And then as soon as it picks up that you've seen the message,
12:21
you've you've opened your phone or you've answered the message,
12:24
they might send you a message and you might a personal message
12:27
and you might answer it. They can say, well, it's pinging
12:30
from this tower. It's coming from this tower.
12:32
He's within this area. Send out the boys and go and
12:35
pick him up. This is what happens.
12:36
Now let's going back to what to what this lady and other people
12:41
have been saying about turning your phone off, you know, taking
12:45
a SIM out, turning the phone off turn it.
12:47
I've heard one person say, you know, turn your phone off at
12:50
this time. Don't turn it off till this
12:52
time. You know what that Lady pull up
12:54
with at the end? She'll be sitting out in the
12:57
middle of you know, the desert with the phone off only
13:02
contactable by carrier pigeon. I personally, and now if you
13:08
don't know, I was a police officer and I was, I was
13:11
actually, I spent most of my time doing covert surveillance,
13:15
covert surveillance, physical surveillance, OK, I was a
13:19
physical surveillance officer, police officer seconded into the
13:23
physical surveillance realm. And that was most of my time in
13:26
in the policing, policing world. So I know how to track people.
13:30
I know how to physically track and what what methods are used.
13:36
I'm not going to go into methodology just in case anyone
13:39
sitting to go on Jay don't talk about methodology.
13:41
I'm not going to go into that. Okay, methodology for that is
13:44
very different. However, when you're doing this,
13:48
people are so worried and they're like, turn off your
13:52
phone. How dare they put this thing on
13:54
their phone. You know, they're able to track
13:55
US. They're going to use it to
13:56
track. The government can already track
13:58
you if they want. If they want to track an
14:00
individual, if they want to find an individual, they can already
14:03
do it already. OK, So this whole notion that if
14:07
I turn off my phone, if I opt out, if I get rid of the app or
14:10
the notifications, I don't understand this whole well, it's
14:16
it's like people just adamant they want to bury their head in
14:19
the sand and pretend that they can get around the system.
14:22
You can't get around the system that it's the system.
14:26
It's bigger than you. If anything, you want to
14:29
approach it completely opposite way, completely opposite
14:34
everything that that Lady said in that video.
14:36
Do the exact opposite. That's what I would be doing OK,
14:40
if I believed in conspiracy theories and if I didn't have
14:45
such a deep rooted love and trust for the Australian
14:48
government to protect me in my safety, this is what I would be
14:52
doing. Everything that she said, I'd do
14:55
the exact opposite. I would leave my phone on.
14:58
I would gather as much information from all the other
15:01
people around me that I knew. I would go and find out
15:03
beforehand what phones do other do friends of mine have, whether
15:08
it's iPhones, Google phones, Samsung's, what networks do they
15:13
run or what's that Chinese phone?
15:16
Hawaii, Hawaii, however you say it, you know all those phones.
15:19
I would find out who do I know with all these different phones?
15:23
Who do I know on every different network that we have in
15:25
Australia? Who do I know living in all
15:29
different areas across Australia?
15:31
And then everyone, let's all turn our phones on and let's
15:36
find out who this works for, who received the information, who
15:41
actually. And then you need to put collate
15:44
all that information, gather all the information that you can and
15:48
work out who who the phone, who this system works, what
15:52
networks, what devices it actually works on and what
15:56
devices it doesn't work on, what area it picked up and what area
16:01
it didn't pick up. You know, you want as much
16:04
information. This, it drives me nuts,
16:10
Australians that think that they can just bury their flipping
16:13
head in the sand and try and ignore it, turn their device off
16:17
or whatever, because it's not just this instance.
16:20
We, I see people do it all the time.
16:21
We just bury a head in the sand. We need to gather as much
16:25
information as possible. If you want to know what you
16:29
are, if you are what you're up against, you need information.
16:35
Information is power. Information is what you need,
16:40
and you need as much information.
16:42
If you're concerned about it, you need as much information as
16:46
you can possibly have. Because if you just turn your
16:48
phone off and bury your head in the sand and think, well, I just
16:51
don't want to get involved. That's the reason why Australia
16:56
is in the situation that we're in now, because people just bury
16:59
their head in the flippant sand and they put up silly posts on
17:02
Facebook and they say, oh look, this is what you can do.
17:04
Oh, look, everyone's giving me this information.
17:06
Read all the information. The Australian government gives
17:10
all the information. They give all the information.
17:13
OK, read all the information. Take it all in and gather it and
17:17
then come to your own conclusions and work out the
17:20
best way. If you're so worried about it,
17:24
then you work out the best way that you can.
17:26
If you want to get around it, get around it or the best way
17:29
that you can use it to help you. This notion that you can get
17:36
around it and that you can live outside outside of technology.
17:41
If you want to live outside of outside of technology and not be
17:46
tracked and you have to completely cut everything off,
17:51
everything, everything off and live like a hermit out in the
17:55
middle of nowhere and they'll still find you.
17:57
They'll still track you down. Unfortunately.
18:01
You know, I hear people talking about stuff and like they say,
18:05
well, you know, I just don't use my phone.
18:07
I'll use it from there. I'll I'll give you an example,
18:09
OK? People think that if they travel
18:12
and they don't take phone calls, they'll turn their phone off
18:17
when they leave. Let's just say I live in the
18:19
wood Sundays and I'm someone who's trying to avoid, avoid
18:25
people avoid an organisation tracking me.
18:28
So I'll turn my phone off and I'll drive all the way down to
18:30
Brisbane. I don't turn my phone on until I
18:32
get to Brisbane. The thing is.
18:36
And and when I get to Brisbane, no one calls me, no one sends me
18:40
messages. The thing is, my phone, as soon
18:42
as you turned on an app, one of my apps, whether I wanted to or
18:47
not, one of my apps is going to do like a little handshake with
18:50
one of the cell towers around in that vicinity.
18:53
And the whatever government agency is going to say, well, we
18:56
didn't know where he was, but obviously he's in Brisbane
18:58
because his phone is doing a little, that app is doing a
19:01
little handshake with that tower in this area.
19:04
So we know he's in Brisbane. We know he's down there now, you
19:06
know, or I've seen people and they've been busted.
19:12
Something's happened. They realised, oh, people are
19:14
watching, people listening to my phone, OK.
19:17
And they think they're really smart and they'll go out the
19:19
next day and they'll get another phone, they'll get another SIM.
19:22
And then they're like, Yep, no one knows me.
19:24
No one knows what I'm doing now because I've got a new phone,
19:26
new SIM, No one knows his phone number.
19:29
So what do they do? As soon as they do it, they text
19:31
all their friends or they ring their mate and they say, hey,
19:35
this is my new number. Don't tell anyone as soon as you
19:39
ring your friend who's still got the same phone number, the other
19:43
people who were tracking you, listening to you, following you
19:47
through your phone, through your device, they now know your new
19:50
number. They now know exactly where you
19:53
are and what you're doing because you've just rung your
19:54
friend. This is if you've ever seen
19:56
those movies about like about the gangs, like in the United
20:01
States, you know, there might be a pretend movie like, you know,
20:03
not in factual and that and they're talking.
20:05
They say, oh, you know, every once a week, the gang leader.
20:09
All the whole gang ditches their phones and they pick up a new
20:12
burner and they only use those burners for a week and then
20:14
every Monday they all get a new burner.
20:18
That's the only way you're going to be able to do it is if
20:23
everyone you knew got a new burner every day, every, every,
20:28
you know, once a week, everyone is on the exactly the same
20:32
wavelength and gets a new burner, then that's the only way
20:37
that you'd be able to avoid being tracked.
20:40
Because as soon as you think, well, you know, I can't get my
20:44
mum to have a new burner every week, so she's got to have the
20:46
same phone number. But me and my mates, we just
20:49
have burners and that's what we use.
20:51
But then once every month, once every six month, I have to call
20:54
my poor little mum, you know, make sure she's OK.
20:56
And then someone's sitting there listening and oh, bang, Jay's
20:59
rung his mum every six months as he usually does.
21:03
So we know his new number. We know exactly where he is
21:05
right now. It's virtually impossible unless
21:09
you're going to live as a hermit.
21:13
All this to say, OK, when people get on social media and say,
21:17
hey, this stuff's happening, turn your phone off, let's all
21:21
be scared. Let's all you know, we don't

want to end up like the UK. Yeah, I, I get it.
21:26
I don't want to end up like the UK and what's going on in Europe
21:29
and all that thing. But the best thing to do is to
21:34
gather as much information, intelligence as you can, OK?
21:39
You don't run and bury your head in the sand.

22:35
Like I said, I trust the government and if they're going
22:38
to use this for my benefit, well, I'm sure it'll be fine.
