This is true if you have offices in different cities across the country. for local marketers it's important to have ip's in different locations and even though restarting your iPhone will get you a new ip it will still be in the same location you are in.
Regarding GPS you can disable that and I don't see it as a problem. 3rd party apps can't have access to your GPS location if it's disabled. I haven't found a better way to perform local marketing, Facebook, etc on a scale with a computer in the long run. Computers are much easier to identify than an iPhone
IP's in different locations can be done through proxy if needed, I don't need to have offices in every city. That's just marketing bullshit you're putting out to convince people that they can't do it in house.
GPS... 3rd party apps certainly can have access even if disabled. There are hacks. Even if you use only legit software, they can pull location from the cell towers. Chances are you haven't disabled JavaScript and there's a whole lot of info you can pull from an iPhone using JavaScript (remember JavaScript /= Java).
Computers can be easier to identify but if you aren't a complete newb then you're still better off with a computer and open source system where you can actually make sure it's not doing anything behind the scenes. iOS is closed so you have no way of knowing for sure what's happening.
