India Considers Always-On GPS Tracking Amid Privacy Concerns

The Indian government is thinking about a new rule that would make smartphones always track your location using satellites.

This is because the government wants to find people more accurately during investigations.

But big companies like Apple, Google, and Samsung don't like this idea.

They say it's a privacy problem because people won't be able to turn off the tracking.

The companies also say this kind of tracking isn't done anywhere else in the world.

The government is still deciding what to do, but the companies are worried it could put people's safety at risk, especially for important people like soldiers, judges, and journalists.
