Yep, you could actually fool phones into thinking they were somewhere else by just cloning a couple of ssids from another place (around 2014 iirc). I dont think this works anymore since phones now use multiple gnss bands etc. That said, my phone thinks its at my home station for the whole 20km’s ride underground, while 5g connectivity is excellent and i have wifi and gps turned on (edit, using Apple Maps).
