Please say, “911, Emergency”
I came across an idea proposal for a way to prevent accidental dialing of 911 “by children who are allowed to play with their parent’s cellphones.”
The idea? Add voice verification to confirm the 911 call, by requiring the user to calmly state “911, emergency” into the handset.
Genius. Let’s see you try that when your house is on fire.
