Most people consider USPS workers to be "federal employees". So why not Amtrack?
I don't know - do apps have free reign over the GPS on Android or do you get alerts when they attempt to use it?
They aren't nagware. If you give permission to install, and it requires GPS access, it can turn it on and off without "notification" (though, dependent on phone, there will be an icon in the display that will turn on, but I'm not sure if that's required). "Location services" doesn't turn on the GPS icon unless using GPS, and location services rarely use GPS because of the unreliability and power drain.
