— It's possible but not truly accurate

— 

The position of a phone device could be determined "triangulating" the last 3 GSM towers it used to connect to the telephony service, but that information could not be accessed by normal people

— Yes, you're right :) I was thinking mostly about "nearby wifi devices" part.

— Ahhan

— You need a legal order emitted by a judge to ask ISP/telephony providers to give that info

— Even with that, the data is not truly accurate nor trustable

— Ohho Then ask them to provide API for it.

— 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣

— That may lead to security problems definitely

— Is there any way to get the perfect location using IP

— Nope

— Yes
