There are numerous incidents like this one where airplanes get into troubles allegedly because of the GPS jamming, again allegedly, by Russia.

I am not so deep into aircrafts, nor GPS or wide scale jamming (it's set of satellites if I'm not mistaken, right?)

So is there anyone to explain how this can be done?

• affecting single aircraft
• hundreds (800 by guesstimate Kaliningrad vs Viena) of kilometers in EU
• how come the divert to Brno, which is really nearby could solve the problem
• how come the commercial lines are reliant on just GPS? What about Galileo system? What about all those others "legacy" and/or ground systems for aircraft navigation?

After being kneecapped by a #patents troll years ago, #Mozilla Location Services, the only somewhat trusted (non-Google/Apple) "Wi-Fi positioning system" (geolocation based on triangulating collected #WiFi SSIDs), is now shutting down: github.com/mozilla/ichnaea/iss…

MLS was how #GeoClue could get a meters-accurate location without a #GPS receiver / sky line-of-sight.

It was used by many #GNOME / #KDE apps to get instantaneous neighborhood-level location (for maps, local weather…) on #Linux laptops.
