These navigation apps are pretty cool, but honestly what prevents them from sending reports to your local police station to tell them when you break the speed limit?
It’s only a matter of time until they turn into spying devices that help your government conduct mass surveillance.
You're using the gps. And they already know what's your device's IMEI. And if your network is active they can triangulate your position and speed by cell towers anyway. They don't even need the app 🤷🏻
GPS and mobile connection with IMEI are two uncorrelated things. Precision for triangulation on a highway in countryside will not be precise enough to reliably know the speed.
I’m also talking about speeding tickets here.
Yes, i skipped that. If the navigation is embedded in the car than yes it works. If navigation is on the phone is hard to prove who or what was in motion.
For the moment, the best I've found without too many compromises is GrapheneOS on a Pixel and using Magic Earth navigation apps.
