I don't think I understand what allowed means in this context because on my OnePlus Nord phone, I have an app called GPS Test which shows me that I have so many GPS, so many GLONASS, and so many Galileo in view. Strange thing is there is no Chinese GNSS in view. (I was on a short trip to Bali recently and iirc I did see Chinese GNSS on the app while there so I think the app and phone hardware is capable of picking up Chinese GNSS?).

> I don't think I understand what allowed means in this context because on my OnePlus Nord phone, I have an app called GPS Test which shows me that I have so many GPS, so many GLONASS, and so many Galileo in view. That app may simply be reporting the presence of signals, but the geolocation functions and APIs may not actually use those signals in their calculations. And if they are actually processing the signals, then they are breaking FCC regulations: * https://selectcommitteeontheccp.house.gov/media/press-releases/gallagher-presses-fcc-us-cell-phones-and-devices-using-chinese-russian-gps https://selectcommitteeontheccp.house.gov/media/press-releas... Legally they could get their FCC certification pulled and not be allowed to be sold in the US if they are doing that.
