The NearBy scopes falls back to geo-ip based position estimates and
caches last known positions. So even if the system-wide positioning
engine is off, the scope is still able to do whatever it wants in terms
of calling into remote geoip services or rely on cached position
estimates. There is hardly anything we can do about it.
