flag GPS spoofing attacks surged in 2024–2025, disrupting flights and prompting reliance on traditional navigation, with state-sponsored activity suspected near the Baltic states.

flag GPS spoofing, the manipulation of satellite signals to falsify location data, has surged in 2024 and 2025, disrupting military and civilian flights, including those carrying top officials like Spain’s Defence Minister and the European Commission President, forcing reliance on traditional navigation. flag Thousands of jamming events have been recorded near the Baltic states, with evidence pointing to state-sponsored activity. flag While some use spoofing for privacy or gaming—such as apps with over 50 million downloads or cheating in Pokémon Go—affordable devices enable attacks on drones, vehicles, and aircraft. flag In response, companies and governments are deploying machine learning, signal-blocking antennas, and more secure satellite systems, though widespread protection remains a work in progress.
