    Why bother with Google when they can just ask your telco.

      Telco doesn’t have the same level of precision I think.

        Yes and no

        The Telco can say between what antennas you are. In urban areas with lots of antennas that’s still pretty accurate to almost say what building. Especially with 5G the number of antennas and accuracy go upto in some cases centimeter/inch accuracy so better than GPS. That last case would be in a mall with small antenna in each corridor.

        In rural areas with data switched off that’s more like somewhere in that square mile, way worse than GPS.
