Google. RTFWWW.

You do not have to pay a subscription fee to use a GPS.

The US military may reduce the accuracy of civilian GPS signals in your geographical area or stop GPS service at any time they wish.
There are seperate encrypted transmissions from the GPS satellites for use by the US military.
