It’s there, I just checked my phone.wtf
 Quoting: Zella


This started rolling out awhile ago and it has nothing to do with cell outages, in fact they need the active signal to push out the updates. No, I don't agree with it and no I don't want it but it wasn't done in secret either.

If and I stress IF they're telling the truth, you have to install an app from the app store in order for it to actually do anything. This is just the framework for the apps to function. Allegedly none of the tracking can work if you turn off bluetooth even if you have an app installed that enables the tracking.

All that said I think it was dirty to install it without asking, it's a clear privacy violation with all kinds of potential for abuse by black hats, government agencies and law enforcment. Unfortunately most places have suspended or ammended privacy laws to allow this crap to be installed on our phones. If a lawsuit ever kicks up over it I'll be signing on you can count on it.
