A breaking news alert was recently sent to smartphone users with the BBC News app installed, letting them know that there would be "no nudity" in the latest episode of Game of Thrones.
“NYPD Twitter campaign ‘backfires’ after hashtag hijacked," the erratic alert read. "Push sucks! Pull blows! BREAKING NEWS No nudity in latest episode of Game of Thrones!!! MORE BREAKING NEWS IIIIIII like testing.”
Obviously, this was a big mistake, and a follow-up alert let confused readers know that they were "test push notifications" sent in error.
Still, good to know.
