I suspect the motivation was to get the mapping app to open showing the current location.0

all that money on an ipad and they couldn't spare a fiver to put a gps chip in it......
amazing really when you consider £25 android phones have gps, and tablets like the sub £100 tesco hudl has one.0 -
This all seems bizarre to me ..
You are actually looking forward to the time when apple scan the mac address of your none apple kit and link that to your physical location and add that to their massive database that they definitely only keep for warm fluffy intentions ?
Does privacy mean nothing to you ?
Do you not already know where you are when you are at home ?
Yes, I value my privacy. But if Apple know where I live, so does my bank, my car insurer, the taxman and a whole host of other people. If all it is doing is reporting my physical location, I don't have a problem with that. I have location services turned off in most of the other apps, as I do see a privacy issue there.
As said above, I just wanted my mapping apps to work. And now they do.If someone is nice to you but rude to the waiter, they are not a nice person.0
