Totally agree. While it was nice to piggyback on a private company app for a while, the concept has been proven. Mission-critical messages require mission-critical infrastructure.
Ukraine, for example, is not using Twitter for this - they use their own emergency app for events that include Russian air attacks, shellings, chemical and radiation hazards. You can't leave the lives of your citizens in the hands of a mercurial, over-medicated wildcard.
