If your Time Warner Cable technician is late to an appointment fix something at your house, they might be on the lookout for missing children instead. The cable giant, which is in the process of being acquired by Comcast, today said its given all 18,000 of its technicians tools to receive and possibly act on AMBER alerts if theyre in the area where an incident is reported. If the technician gets the alert, they wont drop everything theyre doing and go into vigilante mode, Time Warner says. TWC will use its Global Security Operations Center in Charlotte, N.C., to receive alerts from [The National Center for Missing Exploited Children] and will redistribute them in real-time to personnel within the alerted area, the company said in a statement. In the event that a child, adult or vehicle fitting the AMBER alert description is spotted, TWC personnel have been trained to immediately contact local law enforcement.
