“would that fall under this law?”

Sure could when they mandate use by law.

“One cannot turn off GPS????”

There are two forks of this question. First we will help welcome it in ourselves because the government will give auto insurance companies tax credits to offer reduced rates “for safe drivers.” This is tracked by GPS so to get the insurance price reduction GPS will have to be on perpetually.

They are already now offering this very price reduction right now and you have to allow them car and phone GPS and data access to get the reduction from them.

And there will be enough idiots who will jump on this that it makes the whole industry follow suit and it become an industry standard. The insurance companies and US fools will do the government’s work for them. Some industry standards soon become mandated because everyone already accepted them anyhow. We will enslave ourselves just to save a couple bucks.

The second fork is this... Just like a cell phone, it might allow you to “think” you have turned off GPS. When in turn it is always on and your carrier is collecting that data in real time anyhow like it or not. Every feature your phone has is being monitored by carriers and the government if they like. GPS, Camera, Microphone, Bluetooth, Fingerprint from fingerprint unlock feature, Images, Contacts, Text, Etc., all of it.

And all this same wireless tech will be used and monitored on cars like it or not. If you think it is off or not. What information they can’t get from the car they will get from your personal tracking device cell phone which is synced with by bluetooth and WiFi throughout every neighborhood you travel through and your car. There really is not any way to hide from it but to drive a car that does not have the tech and Faraday your cell phone.

In fact soon it will be a law to allow government access to all of it in real time. They are already secretly doing it, They just haven’t legally mandated it in writing yet.
