I've decoded the transmission Ash, and I think it's a warning.

To be fair, this is exactly what working 911/dispatch is like. This and people calling up complaining about how their neighbor stole their carton of cigarettes.

kingarthur - 2015-05-11 When I worked 911 the butt dial from a cellphone was common and we would attempt to call you back to let you know what happened, barring an actual emergency and to make sure you were safe.
Were we busy you were on your own because most 911/dispatch ain't got the technology to triangulate jack or shit.

Old_Zircon - 2015-05-11 Yeah, I had to pull over and wait for the callback.

infinite zest - 2015-05-11 This toy seems like a bad idea to begin with. The only situation I can see it useful is where mom and dad are tied up but the intruders don't consider the baby, and the baby recognizes it as an emergency, but chances are the intruders have already ripped the landlines out of the wall, if people even use landlines anymore. More likely, this is just positive reinforcement for dialing 3 numbers and nothing more.

EvilHomer - 2015-05-11 I don't think this toy is meant to teach baby to dial 911, IZ. It's simply there to get baby used to the idea of living in a paranoid, fear-driven society.

911? More like 666.

I downloaded a war dialer in like 1994 and it would dial 911 no matter what exchange you wanted to scan. I know this because the my father barges into the room and says "The police are here!" Luckily, most nobody knew anything about the interwebs back then and I just said to the police "Sorry, the computer modem malfunctioned and dialed 911 by mistake." The police said "oh, okay" and left. I found a better war dialer after that. The end.
