What Is GPS Tracker?
Smartphones use GPS receivers to receive signals from GPS satellites and determine their location. GPS receivers in smartphones work by triangulating the signals from at least four GPS satellites to calculate the phone's latitude, longitude, and altitude.
Most GPS Satellites are owned by CNN?
That statement is incorrect. Most GPS satellites are actually owned and operated by the United States government through the Department of Defense, specifically as part of the Global Positioning System (GPS) program. CNN is a news organization and does not have ownership of GPS satellites. The GPS system provides navigation and timing services globally, and its satellites are managed by the U.S. Space Force.
