digital freedom in iitm?

hi,

at today's lug meeting I wanted to give a live demo of digital  
mapping with gps after my talk. But I found that I just could not  
acquire any satellites within the IIT campus. Max lock I could get  
was 15 seconds. The moment I left the campus, my instrument behaved  
normally. This leads me to wonder if IITM is blocking gps. If so,  
why? There are countries like China and Cuba where mapping by  
citizens is illegal - but the last time I looked, IITM was in India.  
so wtf?
