You called 998, you called the "authorities" already. Cat's out of the bag. Van's engine is running. They know where you live and they know how fast you're moving. They can't know how many doses you took or how many rounds are left. You'll wake up chained to a bed with screams and moaning in the hallway. Nurse Ratched is here with your pills.

The whole point of the article was that there's no transparency. Nobody knows how many calls gets passed along to 911 and there's no way for an end user to know if they are getting pinged/traced. It is a fraud and a violation of trust for 988 to bill itself as confidential under these circumstances.
