yea, that’s what I’d figure. However easy a GPS setup would be, most businesses are, I’d guess, relying entirely on network snooping/logs. Which, if true, seemed pretty fallible once I started thinking about it.

I made devices to track wildlife via gps and an embedded simcard and GSM radio to report tracking data. It would be trivial to install a device to basically turn the laptop into one of those tracking devices. But this is beyond what a typical business would consider doing.

Depending on how accurate you want it, the simcard is plenty. If your goal is “don’t be in France”, you really don’t need more…
