Carrying a GPS tracker wouldn’t be the smartest thing to do, wouldn’t we need someone like Europe or Canada who control their own satellites to assist?
Would this spark the beginning of a space war?

I’m going to point out, for the technologically illiterate, that GPS satellites do not in any way track people.
GPS satellites go “beep” and by listening to the timing of those “beeps” from different satellites, a GPS receiver on earth can determine it’s own location via triangulation. It’s a bit more complicated than that, but that’s the basic idea.
The only way you can be “tracked via gps” is if your GPS tracking device is also transmitting information using some other method (cell phone, radio signals, non-gps satellite connection, etc.)
