Excuse my ignorance but how is this different than an amber alert?

Day one, and Arizonans discover that someone has gone and backlisted all prior disappearances from the last 20 years, and scheduled them for daytime broadcast over the following year.

NGL that would absolutely make my day, as people’s faces are crammed bodily into the sheer enormity of the problem.

hopefully phones default to the amber alert setting for wether to make noise.
