Note that it looks like a syringe between two windows. It means you have been targeted by the vaccine enforcement team. They should be arriving within the next 72 hours.

Clearly this means the aliens have targeted your position. My K50 only does this when I put my electronic thumb on top.

You have to go into the camera menu tab # 2 at the bottom it says GPS choose that and log GPS off by confirming the choice by ok. You then get a choice to end the registration. The button on the left side that says GPS toggles between registration on or off (pausing it) and not GPS on or off. Hope this helps.

There is a tie-fighter hard on your tail. Take evasive actions!
