   The question is why do you Apple trolls, in your attempt to defend Apple to   
   the death, no matter what, espouse opinions that NOBODY else in the world   
   would agree with?   
      
   You repeatedly claimed it was not a trivial exercise to track the BSSID:GPS   
   movements where I just wrote this code to track the first 400 I obtained.
