----------------------------------

Yes removing geolocation makes sense for amazon-fireos and is in plans. Will do it soon.

> From the spec https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-geolocation/blob/master/doc/index.md
> It says :
> "This API is based on the W3C Geolocation API Specification, and only executes on devices that don't already provide an implementation. "
> But this is not true now (tested on android tablet OS 4.4.2 ). It used to be true for Cordova 2.9.0 .
> I found the difference is :
> 1. Cordova 2.9.0 , it uses "defaults" to map module 
>     https://github.com/apache/cordova-js/blob/2.9.x/lib/common/plugin/geolocation/symbols.js#L24
> 2. Cordova latest version, it uses "clobbers" to map module .
> https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-geolocation/blob/master/plugin.xml#L60
> I see the Cordova geolocation implementation is removed on android platform, shouldn't do on amazon-fireos as well ?
