@snakespm @Frederic fictionalized history but “TURN: Washington’s Spies” had the plausible story that General Charles Lee was giving info to the British and Washington intentionally let Lee take lead into the Battle Monmouth as cover for removal rather than let the French, Dutch, and Spanish discover that there was a traitor at the top.

Similarly, King Edward 8th was pal’ing around with Nazis and was moved further and further away until the end war and barred from ever reentering UK.

@Lowbird I suspect that it didn’t take that much money to get one of these as a pet, it was probably a bunch of middle class Florida men/women that this “genius” move. I’m just challenging the “rich idiots” with the likelihood that not so rich idiots are to blame

@Exaggeration207 @maynarkh confusing Florida for Australia is pretty much presumed with both being sun beaten places where wildlife that would shock the rest of humanity is quaint daily life of their respective people.

Hit Australian comedy Kath & Kim was remade in America and was set in Florida… only got one season in the US

@Illecors other reports don’t even mention GPS, mobile internet is considered the threat vector. This is akin to Oakland turning off BART’s internet during protests sparked by the killing of Oscar Grant. Totalitarian regimes whether its Erdoğan’s Turkey, American cities with large protests, Iran, or Russia feel compelled to control communication and information. North Korea never even let’s comms/info get turned on.

This is not a surprise in the slightest.

@Illecors @petrescatraian
Mobile devices that use GPS for location services, don’t use the satellites exclusively, they use GPS-A location which relies on triangulation between cell towers, and for greater preciseness wifi SSID signal strength.

Turning off internet location services make GPS-A devices unable to use GPS services
