GPS Units Disable Themselves If They Go Faster Than 1,200 MPH

GPS Units Disable Themselves If They Go Faster Than 1,200 MPH: "

This is cool, GPS units disable themselves if they go faster than 1,200 mph and if they go above 60,000 feet…

In GPS technology, the phrasing “COCOM Limits” is also used to refer to a limit placed to GPS tracking devices that should disable tracking when the device realizes itself to be moving faster than 1,000 knots (1,900 km/h; 1,200 mph) at an altitude higher than 60,000 feet (18,000 m). This was intended to avoid the use of GPS in intercontinental ballistic missile-like applications. Some manufacturers apply this limit literally (disable when both limits are reached), other manufacturers disable tracking when a single limit is reached.

Somewhat of a problem for homemade space programs?
