The Firefox Mobile permissions request in the Android Market states that Firefox Mobile needs permission to access your GPS location data. Is there a way to disable this?

The gps information is not sent to Mozilla and is only provided to sites with your manual approval.

For an example of what this looks like visit http://html5demos.com/geo
