> MacBooks just provide their GPS location to Jamf thanks to FindMy.

1. Do MacBooks even have proper GPS hardware onboard? Honest question.

2. I wouldn't think GPS would actually work very well, given how cavernous office buildings are--no clear view of the sky for GPS. And if you get a GPS signal indoors at home, it shouldn't be too hard to block.

I don’t know if it’s real GPS or something more like how phones lookup near by wifi networks to get location, but MacBooks seem to get pinpoint precision location
