Maybe I missed something, but is this really how Firefox's location services work? By phoning google with the MAC address? I understood google was logging them, but didn't know they were _using_ them...


The location services are pretty creepy actually. I gave a site access and it knew my exact address. I will not be giving another site access, until I can specify that it should only provide my city.
