I wonder whether people who don't use OnStar or LCD-based Google Maps remain in danger. Surely if one plugs in one of the older-style, stand-alone Garmin or Magellan GPS units, that info can't be slurped up... ?

When I read articles like this -- or, more often, those about venues trying to restrict or ban -- the thought keeps repeating, "What part of 'shall not be infringed' don't you understand?"

(Down, NB... down, boy...)

Issue in original thread has been resolved, and hijack post has been answered, so this thread is now closed to further comment.

Wish I could help, but I have no idea at all. From my reading in this forum, they seem to be pretty efficient.

We can refer you to our dentist in Mexico, si D ma'am.

It's true that the HCMC consulate is very high-volume. However, it's unlikely that they would have personnel (COs or LES -- locally engaged staff) who could evaluate or validate Russian/Belarusian/Ukrainian documents with authority and issue visas with confidence. It's best to concentrate on Jerusalem, which does have the relevant capabilities.

Thread is moved from the K-1 Process forum to the Philippines regional forum.
