() Your tablet might have GPS but if not, Google knows where you are by your public IP address. They collect and map that info, along with everything else you do on your "free" Google Android OS. That enables them to sell very precisely targeted advertising at a higher price than untargeted ads. You are the product. The "free" OS is the delivery mechanism. Welcome to the modern age.
