Instead of implementing what the user wants they implement what the user thinks he wants.

agps is a feature.
Brainlets can disable it and do stupid shit like uninstall gapps or use cyanocuck.

wow!!!!

agps without firing up the gps module saves battery life and also allows the phone to obtain gps locks more quickly with less signals.

If you honestly give a fuck about tracking you won't use a cellphone.

>>62193232
agps should only use cell towers with wifi off
>>
>>62189083
You're fucking retarded. You install a rom without GApps and disable WiFi scanning. I know this is bait but idiots like >>62191523 and >>62193049 take it for face value.

You are still walking around with a device that is broadcasting a unique ID for tens of miles around you that anyone can use to locate you at any time.

Fucking brainlet dipshit worried about his godamn location services working properly.
>>
>>62193411
you're right. applel toys don't even have the option.
>>
>>62193411
Don't get a cucked phone then. It's usually the manufacturer that fucks with your settings like that

>>62193424
I never said it helps privacy you autist. I'm stating that it's possible to fix these issues instead of whining like a shit. Also, when'd you come back?

Your point is?
>>
>>62193569
you probably all have the same phones. >>62193455 is more useful than your autistic screenshots attempting to prove me wrong. some manufacturers make their own settings and it won't nessesarily have the option to disable scanning

Sure, but if the Samcucks have it (>>62193616), 99% of Android probably has it
>>
>>62193625
I mean you probably have stock AOSP ROMs or some shit with stock settings
>>
>>62193642
I mean, I for one run, prefer Lineage.
But come on, this is /g/, we dont all use the same manufacturer.

Is there a means to enable wifi based on location that doesn't also mean Google gets your location as well?
>>
>>62193897
If Google owns your phone's OS, and you don't even license it (your phone maker does), what sort of consideration do you imagine you get?
You are the product. That's all.
All your data are belong to Google.
>>
Doesnt matter because you cant trust android to not just wait for you to connect to wifi then upload a bunch of shit like gps data logs, app usage time, to google.

I remember when people said conservatives had difficulty detecting sarcasm and irony. You don't take those comments saying, "Every day we stray further from God's light" on anime videos seriously too, do you? He even threw on a smiley face to make it easy for you retards.

how is this news? this has been known for fucking years, and if you don't like it, turn off the scanning option.
