It can't be turned off.

I've turned them off on every android phone I've had. I can't ever remember how though so I have to dig around every time.

Without rooting or using custom roms? AFAIK all stock roms allow you to turn off most alert types, but not this one specifically.

Without rooting or using custom roms. Current phone is stock Oneplus 6T with all alerts disabled. I got none yesterday.

Edit: At first I incorrectly mentioned 7T. 6T is my current phone. I should probably do something about that eventually as it doesn't get updates anymore. I see in the settings something for alerts but it doesn't open. I have no clue how I disabled them but I did.

Same. I have an iPhone now and was annoyed that I can't. I have all "Government Alerts" disabled in settings and I still got the test alert yesterday.

It's going to be interesting times when you both cannot trust and cannot disable these sorts of push messages and alerts.
