I would assume these are intended for use when hiking and mountain climbing. It could save your life if someone else has your GPS coordinates when you go missing.
Any serious hiker concerned about that would carry an SOS beacon for an emergency. I would I no way want my backpack broadcasting my GPS location 24/7 in case I get lost in the woods.
Nah, nothing about Peak Designs (or any electronic gear backpack company)is intended for serious hiking let alone mountain climbing. The inexperienced day and over night hikers may rely on a phone as newer ones have rudimentary GPS ability. The more serious are using things like InReach.
