Semi related question I suppose. Do the Teslas simply use GPS for their location information? If so, couldn't one spoof the GPS using a hackRF or similar?

My first job when about 14 was working a pumpkin field/farm, every day, for the entire summer with (debatable) 2 other people. It's non-stop work. Eventually, it folded and became ... A development.

As far as I know, it is true. I had the same response when I first learned this. Goes to show there are many ways of explaining something, and some ways just click for people and some do not.
