印度认为迫使所有智能手机总是追踪位置, India considers forcing all smartphones to always track location, sparking privacy concerns.

印度政府正在审查一项提案,要求在所有智能手机上始终以卫星为基础进行定位跟踪,要求苹果、谷歌和三星使A-GPS能够在没有用户禁用选项的情况下实现。 India’s government is reviewing a proposal to mandate always-on satellite-based location tracking on all smartphones, requiring Apple, Google, and Samsung to enable A-GPS without user disable options. 这一行动旨在绕过目前手机塔数据的限制,提高执法人员跟踪个人的准确性。 The move aims to improve law enforcement accuracy in tracking individuals, bypassing current limitations of cellular tower data. 科技巨人和隐私倡导者反对该计划,称其为全球史无前例的计划,对隐私和国家安全构成威胁。 Tech giants and privacy advocates oppose the plan, calling it unprecedented globally and a threat to privacy and national security. 该提案是在对先前被撤回的预先装载政府网络安全应用程序的任务产生反响之后提出的。 The proposal follows backlash over a previously withdrawn mandate to preload a government cyber safety app. 尚未作出任何决定,家庭和信息技术部仍在评估该计划。 No decision has been made, and the home and IT ministries are still assessing the plan.
