Some of us are activists. It is our duty expose incompetence. It is nobody’s duty to expose anything for the sake of exposing it. It is our duty to expose things for the sake of solving them. If you have a better solution, we’re ready to hear it.
The question is, why would have it covered up? I don’t see anything being covered up. You have linked an official government website that tells you how to perform the test. Looks like you have found it. Doesn’t seem like much of a secret. Where else should they put it?
Of course the reason I was looking into how to test 911 is because I actually fucking need to test it Then do what they tell you to do: contact them beforehand (borrow a phone from a neighbor or send them an email) and ask if they have free capacity for a test call and what you should do if you don’t know which 911 call center your VOIP setup will reach.

Bullshit. Exposure is the 1st step.
Of course.
It’s not my problem to solve. Do you also demand that testers fix the bugs they report?
You’re perversely out of step with out volunteer effort is managed. Volunteers choose for themselves how much effort they contribute. You are not their manager. It’s not for you to drive-by task people and bark out orders. When a bug is reported, it’s public for anyone to solve, if they want.
You don’t know how threadcrap works. It’s designed to suppress the thesis by creating a distraction.
