It doesn't. First off it gets the wrong people to download the app. Second the right people will be turned off from downloading it.
> It doesn't
What is this based on?
> it gets the wrong people to download the app
Who is a wrong person for a disaster-readiness app?
> the right people will be turned off from downloading it
One, nothing precludes multiple apps. Two, we have different definitions for the right people to save if they’re going to prioritise cultural comfort over safety.

Yes, we should instead look to have Justin Bieber or Twilight fans perish in natural disasters.
You got it backwards. Think critically.
If it was Justin Bieber themed only the Justin Bieber fans wouldn't perish.
Would you download a Justin Bieber natural disaster app? If the answer is yes then this conversation is over.
