Скачать или смотреть Govt Plans Mandatory GPS Tracking in Smartphones

India’s government is reportedly reviewing a controversial telecom industry proposal that could force smartphone companies like Apple, Samsung, and Google to enable satellite GPS location tracking permanently ON in all devices. This means users would have no option to disable location services, turning every smartphone into a 24×7 tracking beacon.

📡 What’s happening?
Proposal by COAI (Cellular Operators Association of India) representing Jio & Airtel.
A‑GPS to be always ON, no user control, no disable option.
Government claims tower data is imprecise, wants precise satellite tracking.

🔒 Why Big Tech is opposing:
Apple, Google, Samsung call it “regulatory overreach.”
Privacy violation: Judges, journalists, CEOs, military officials could all be exposed.
Economic impact: iPhone exports may collapse if India mandates backdoors.
Global precedent: No country on Earth enforces permanent GPS tracking.

⚖️ Privacy vs Security Debate:
Supporters say it’s essential for national security, law enforcement, and preventing incidents.
Critics warn it’s mass surveillance disguised as safety.
Digital rights experts call it “dedicated government surveillance devices handed out voluntarily.”

🔥 Why this matters:
India could become the first country to mandate continuous geolocation.
Citizens lose digital freedom and privacy rights.
Tech giants united against government policy — a rare revolt.
