It’s an emergency alert. So of course cannot be disabled, it would be stupid if it could be disabled it would completely miss the point.
EDIT: It seems like at least on the UK can be disabled so maybe other places too…to me it defeats the main purpose but whatever…
I mean I guess it makes sense in some situations for secondary phones or similar but then there risk of not receiving the alert, of course you could aswell be without a phone and nobody nearby and also don’t get the alert.
Idk… like it’s not a common thing that happens so that the secondary phone or similar sounds it’s not that terrible, that said there are some exceptions shown in the comments about abusive relations so I could see that being an issue.
I have never gotten an emergency alert of any sort before this one. I have them disabled because I don’t care. It’s my phone, I can do as I please with it. Besides, if it is meant to reach every person in [country] you know that not everyone has a phone, right?

I’m in the UK and we can disable them here 🤷🏻♀️
Interesting 🤔 yeah I saw instructions online. Idk to me it defeats the main pourpose of alerting everybody no matter.
That said reading comments there are some examples of people having second phones hidden that could be a problem.
