GPS devices receive signals from satellites, they do not transmit them. A person would have to have a device that received the gps signal to determine location AND a "satellite phone" like transmitter for anyone to respond in real time. This transmitter likely wouldn't be very small.
What would be more practical and possibly feasible would be to implant a gps receiving device and a "black box" type device that records all the locations you have been. Unfortunately, this would only be useful to others once your body was possibly recovered.
I am sure the only way these people fall asleep at night is with comfort from the devil.

software initiates the gps, parents can now track their kids on a bus, whenever they want to see where the child may be, this device is on a small wristwatch. The point being it is inactive until the "homebase" calls the specific identifier chip on board.
