​ This example of geolocational fail is from an iPhone app called Sex Offender Search, which, thanks to Megan's Law, allows you (quasi-legal) mobile access to a database of sex offenders.

Due to the unintentional hilarity of the GPS notification above, the makers of the app, LogSat Software, might want to consider hiring a copywriter. Or perhaps a lawyer.
