"Was Einstein Wrong?"

"...the Global Positioning System’s satellites are programmed to
account for the effects of relativity."

GPS is used to measure the path;
GPS is adjusted for relativity;
Relativity has been disproven;
GPS adjustments for relativity are suspect;
the method to measure the path is suspect;
the disproof is suspect.

One example of a very common experimental failure - circular
referentiality.
