fishing boats and military often have it off btw.

fishing boats turn it off when they're in places they're not supposed to fish
Chinese fishing boats specifically.
Spanish also. And probably many other, seems a common trick.
Also British ones, though to be fair to them a fair number do actually have it turned on in the areas I'm in.
Yeah, I have experienced this as a sailor.
