Building a GPS Receiver
If you really want to see all the gps-like services out there and have android, you must play with the open-source GPStest
https://github.com/barbeau/gpstest
I've been fascinated for years how badly GPS does altitude (mean-sea-level)
in the USA they had to build an augmentation system for airplanes for altitude (WAAS)

iPhone 14 Pro comes with dual-frequency GPS
It is possible on quite a few modern Android phones to access raw receiver data and do post-processing using a rinet file to get mm-level accuracy. It's a little over my head since this isn't my industry. One of Google's more obscure Android apps to be used with it: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.and...
GPSTest also carries some logging functionality to do the same: https://github.com/barbeau/gpstest

If you did not install GApps try outdoor with an unobstructed view of the sky for 10 minutes to get the first fix with apps like GPSTest by barbeau or SatStat for example.

What happened to the promise of super accurate GPS?
I hope more people can contribute with GPSTest app.

[help] formulate m/s to km/h
For a visual of what speed accuracy figures one might expect, I suggest trying GPSTest (not to be confused with similarly named apps). It'll display accuracy values along with many other values.

What are your favorite End-to-End encrypted tools for online privacy?
For messaging I'm currently on Olvid (E2E with physical key exchange) but since it still use their servers, I'm currently testing SimpleX where I can host my own servers.

U.K. Abandons, for Now, Legislation That Would Have Banned End-to-End Encryption
If you have a mobile phone number, the domestic intelligence agency knows exactly where you are at all times and any LEO (without a warrant) can also find you. In addition, there have been numerous CCC presentations showing how insecure the global (excluding US) and (separately) US carriers are guilty of promiscuous metadata trafficking ($$) and insecure SS7 setups. As a consequence, for low $, you can go to any one of several shady websites and find the last location of almost any phone number (person unique ID) globally. There are additional varying exploitable vulnerabilities depending on the exact combination of {handset x carrier x country} to impersonate them, tap their line, reveal their exact location, and redirect their phone number through a third-party handset or even a PBX. These are more expensive and some capabilities are forbidden for all but a few selective intelligence uses.
Session (Signal fork) doesn't use phone numbers. It's pretty well-designed overall and uses an onion routing approach. It's already a superset of Signal except it doesn't use phone numbers. https://getsession.org

PS: Using regular TOR on home broadband or cloud servers is relatively risky and inefficient. Sybil attacks on it are common. And to network operators and security agencies it gives an easy "flow tag" of your uplink and exit node data traffic as automatically suspicious.
