GPS has made a major impact on our world. How is it a free service that anyone with a phone can access? How is it profitable for companies to offer services like navigation without subscription fees or ads?

Shitty ELI5 – most services advertised as “free” have long Terms & Conditions where somewhere in there you agree to the following:
* Give data
* Give phone number
* Allow access to your location
Outside companies pay good money for this stuff. Including the gov’t.
