The new API Google Maps Geolocation does not use GPS to get your location. The location technology is based on cell tower triangulation and identification of the closest Wi-Fi hotspot. As long as the program uses Google’s database and knows the coordinates of these hotspots, it is possible to calculate your hotspots. You can read more on our blog.
This is a very cool feature because it will definitely work indoors and it is easy to install batteries. Therefore, using this API, you can expect the device to work longer without charging. From another point of view, API provides various possibilities for tracking, which will be more effective than GPS tracking or cell phone tower triangulation tracking.
But there is a way to prevent the API from obtaining your coordinates. To block the Google Maps Geolocation API, you will need a very special jammer, and PerfectjammerInc is lucky to have a cell phone jammer! You will need to block Wi-Fi around you, so hotspots around you will not be able to connect and recognize. Wi-Fi uses the 2.4 GHz frequency and does not require a license. Then you will have to block the surrounding cell phones so that cell tower triangulation technology will not be able to surround you. Therefore, to block this new API, you should try our Wi-Fi / GSM MONSTRO jammer. It will succeed.
