This is probably the one you're thinking of: "The Embraer EMB-505 Phenom 300, for instance, entered service in 2009 and has since become the world’s best-selling light jet. In 2016, the FAA warned that if the Phenom 300 encountere

Geolocation. That's the only reason I care and I don't trust Google's implementation, but sometimes I'm forced to use Chrome/Chromium to access a site and some manager has decided geolocation is mandatory.

If there were no other unique identifiers for a machine how would they be able to create a key that's specific to it? If they can't create a specifc key the entire thing is just for show and it's certainly not with iOS device
