Java Applications & GPS Security

Some Java applications can make use of your phone’s GPS feature to determine the approximate geographical location of your phone. (See “GPS Enabled” on page 122 for more information on the GPS feature.) However, for privacy reasons, you may not always want Java applications to access the location of your phone. Your phone protects your privacy by giving you the option to block all or some Java applications from accessing the location of your phone.
