I'm not particularly sure for wimax in specific..but if you look at it..any time your using a phone they can triangulate where you are... hence the "Use Wireless networks" option..any form of 2 way communication can always be traced in 1 form or another..

I forgot how it came up but that part of the discussion that day. On how technology can be used track you even with out you knowing it.

Well, the gps is actually built into snapdragon chipset, so i doubt they'd incorporate a second radio for it just to spy on you.
