Public bug reported:

When location detection is enabled geoip is used by default. Unlike the
other methods there is no separate control provided to enable and
disable its use. This should be added to the Security and Privacy >
Location  panel and to the wizard.

This somewhat complicates the options. 
Use GPS only
Use GPS with Geoip (default)
Use GPS, Wifi, etc (opt in)
