[Discuss] GPS feature in cellphones?



Hi All!

Thank you for reading and answering my post in advance.

My question is old voice flip phones could only be traced to the transmitting tower. But I understand now that GPS is built in and is active whether you activate it or not. So there is the potential to track you within three meters. Is this so?
