Surely Embraer knows that GPS is owned by the US military and that in case of crisis/war they have the key to degrade it or even switch it off
Turning GPS off during a crisis would just turn that crisis into a disaster. Pretty much the whole world now relies on GPS for precision timing, and many systems would shut down soon after it disappeared.
