Privacy question - is GPS active with phone powered off?
#6
It crops up all over from time to time so using the forum search is probably easiest.

From the privacy/location perspective the cell part of the modem is probably as much of an issue as the GPS anyway. See the 3GPP specs for details - there's all sorts of stuff in there that you probably wouldn't think your cell provider ought to know about your phone.
