    What amazon did to diapers.com is a very good example of burning money to kill a rival. Especially because they launched their campaign while trying to buy them.

    From working on hardware with GPS-functionality tacked on before, I can suggest a simpler solution; 1: Find the GPS module, and look up its data sheet. 2: Spoof the data coming out…
