gollark: Apparently 5G NR has the tower know your position to within a few metres for beamforming.
gollark: Mobile network specs require towers to have very, very accurate timers, and they can do multilateration (and without that know your location down to the nearest cell, at least).
gollark: I guess lots of the phone network gets timing from GPS, but still.
gollark: It's not satellites, it's terrestrial infrastructure and computing.
gollark: The problems with this are basically just held off by... I'm not actually sure.
