I feel like most people don& #39;t realize that maps are illegal in China. If you buy a device with a GPS in it (like a phone) in China and it prints out your current GPS coordinates, those GPS coordinates will be false. All GPS devices are required to lie and the maps are also lies. https://twitter.com/Nrg8000/status/1295926155728449536">https://twitter.com/Nrg8000/s...

The devices and the maps are telling the same lies, so you can at least use the maps with the devices to get around a a city, but none of it is accurate

A few people objected to the declarative sentence fragment "maps are illegal" so to be clear: This is a statement accurate maps are illegal combined with an ontological judgement about whether an inaccurate map "is" a map. Also digital distribution of the fake ones is controlled
