In some countries they are also used for missing people, train crashes, terrorist attacks, pandemic quarantine rule changes. I'm not opposed to getting this information, but I am opposed to it not being optional.

And I have zero trust in our current government and could absolutely see it being misused down the line. But, for now, they can be turned off here.
