It sounds a little dire, but I could imagine if in some places of the world governments get worse and want to fuck people, it could be really easy to pin cybercrime on them.

Could the titular jellyfin server be caught by shitty mac or windows (or god damn smart tv) spyware?

Oddly, GPS is something I trust more than modern alternatives. GPS might be USAF’s doing, but they specifically made it open use and self-locating. While modern smartphones, unfortunately, have a shitton of snooping with GPS, the concept requires no such transmission: Your GPS device triangulates it’s own position based on the signal strength of the orbiting satellites, and displays a marker on a map.

Meanwhile, several American corporate competitors exist that, and the Chinese GPS-ish system also, requires internet to determine location based on data that should remain private.
