Hopefully no GPS jammers nearby.

Yes. I'm sure they apply all the mitigations possible.

Worth mentioning that the previous state of the art solution relied on a radio link too. Not sure if it was an implementation where jamming could led to flight termination, or where jamming could lead to failure to terminate a flight. But jamming, and resistance to it, was a concern even before autonomous flight termination.

A bit hard to GPS jam a rocket on the way up.
