These are not just for nuclear attack.  Could be zombie infestations or other nationwide emergencies.  

But for the person who asked what you’re supposed to do if a nuclear missile is headed es your way, hide under your desk?

yes that would probably be a reasonable thing to do.  Preferably in a basement.    It is unlikely that the missile is headed directly for you, and if you are far enough away and with enough barriers between you you’ll probably survive, as long as the house doesn’t fall on you.  Which is why you hide under the desk.

The alert tone is quite jarring. I wonder how many panic attacks, car accidents and heart attacks occur when the tone sounds?

I've always been alone when they've come, but I couldn't imagine being in a crowded room.

Yeah, this is a totally ridiculous charge. It's not Google's fault that consumers are refusing to change search engines. No one seems to care that in most communities, there is only one choice for Cable TV. Sure, they can switch to Satellite TV or Online Streaming, but if they have their heart set on Cable, there is only one option available. That Versus anyone can switch to any number of search engines they want. I don't get it.  

Seriously?  Everybody has complained for 50 years about lack of cable choice.

Yeah, but the regulators don't jump in and threaten to levy fines...
