I didn't see where it says to reboot equipment (as is in the image above) on the fema announcement. If that needs to happen then wouldn't that mean something was downloaded onto all tech devices? And if we were to turn off or unplug everything and turn it back on after, wouldn't that be the same thing? Couldn't they still download whatever it is, as soon as we turn equipment back on? Sorry I'm not very tech savvy so if someone please explain it to me.
So, sorta. If they make devices download the update ahead of time, then you will be unable to escape it.
But even if you escape an update, ISPs and cell phone providers have the ability to force an update or disallow phone usage until you do by making an update entirely unskippable.
