I don't think so. Because this access point can be seen by *other*
devices which may report its current position. This is how Google learns
the positions of Wi-Fi access points anyway.

 
With Jeff's suggestion, we're finally making progress on the solution.
 
What Arno said is true that any access point (that advertises itself on
airwaves as not hidden) will be seen (& uploaded) to the AP databases.
 
This upload is not done by you - but by all the rude people around you.
Which is pretty much everybody who owns an Android phone (9,999 of 10K).
