The authors wrote a client to ask Apple’s WiFi Positioning API for the locations of random AP addresses. Enough of the random addresses were known to Apple’s location database that it returned real location data. Apple’s API also returns th

An interesting difference between BSTR and Pascal strings is that BSTR strings, in addition to the length prefix, are NUL terminated (for compatibility with C string APIs). And since Pascal strings track their length in the prefix, they can
