   I never disagree with anyone who makes a logically sensible statement.   
   No matter who they are.   
      
   As I stated, and which you disputed, it's trivial for me to query Apple's   
   highly insecure WPS database for any access point MAC in the world.   
      
   I proved you dead wrong, Chris.   
   And I accept that without needing you to apologize for being dead wrong.   
      
   As for the GPS decimal places, I make no dispute about the "noise" level.   
   All I'm showing you is EXACTLY what's in the Apple WPS database, Chris.   
      
   Which you can prove easily for yourself, so you can't dispute this fact.   
      
   Here are just three outputs from Apple's highly insecure WPS database.   
   These happen to be in Shreveport but they could be anywhere in the world.   
      
     BSSID: 00:18:f8:c1:4a:65   
     Latitude: 32.45991134   
     Longitude: -93.81384277000001   
      
     BSSID: 02:aa:a0:e3:5f:38   
     Latitude: 32.458904260000004   
     Longitude: -93.81495666   
      
     BSSID: 06:aa:a0:e3:5f:38   
     Latitude: 32.45891189   
     Longitude: -93.81496429   
      
   Why do you think Apple collects & stores the GPS to so many decimal places?   
   --   
   I agree with anyone who states a logically sensible viewpoint, no matter   
   who they are, & I disagree with those who don't, no matter who they are.
