PS. Kindly explain why Google Maps really wants to stalk my location even when not using it actively. It's been forced down Android users a few years ago via a "Yes/Not now" dark pattern, it's coming on iPhone under the guise of "share location with your friends".
PS2. Kindly explain why anyone would ever trust Google to not expand their data acquisition behavior once the sensors are in place. For example, GPS, but always on mics and cameras in the future.
- jayd16 9y agoThe obvious answer is to target location based features in Google Now and ads.
- bazzargh 9y agoexplain why Google Maps really wants to stalk my location even when not using it actively Turn by turn navigation. It's called out as a use-case for this on the Apple docs for this service. https://developer.apple.com/library/content/documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual/LocationAwarenessPG/CoreLocation/CoreLocation.html https://developer.apple.com/library/content/documentation/Us... (I don't need or use that; so I turned it off)
- pawadu 9y agoDid you knew Chromecast refuses to register in your network unless Google has your exact GPS coordinates? Try setting up one from a phone with GPS turned off and see what happens (assuming the wifi AP you are using is not already in their location mapping database)
