A method and system provides for notification to a user of registered
devices that are in violation of local law using the Global Positioning
System (GPS). One or more one or more devices in a mobile environment are
registered with a GPS navigation system of the mobile environment. In
response to the mobile environment moving from a first location to a
second location, the GPS navigation system retrieves local law
information that specifies or defines local law of the second location
using GPS coordinates of the second location. It is next determined
whether each device of the one or more devices registered with the GPS
navigation system is in violation of the local law. If so, a user in the
mobile environment is notified of each registered device that is in
violation of the local law.
