gollark: What? No. It correlates with relevant stuff quite well.
gollark: Technically, IQ is defined relatively, so it'll have to continually cull the population.
gollark: There is always a bigger idiot.
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).
