New business opportunity: A company that ships iPhones to Europe and installs/refreshes alternative app stores on them.
- kccqzy 3y agoA company that produces a device that fakes GPS (with extremely weak RF so as not to draw the ire of FCC or other government bodies) to convince the phone it is in Europe.
- Aloisius 3y agoCell towers and wifi base stations announce country code too. There's no guarantee they're using GPS.
- freeAgent 3y agoYeah, if I was a betting man I would bet that they're using location from cell tower pings. Good luck with that.
- op00to 3y agoThis would be illegal, even at a low power.
- TheLoafOfBread 3y agoFaraday cage, where you will close the phone inside - Inside it will have WiFi VPNed to EU country and emulated GPS
- extraduder_ire 3y agoIt's cheaper than that, if you're in the US. There's plenty of EU countries' land on the west side of the Atlantic. All over the world, in fact.
