I disabled most of it 12 months ago, not just because of privacy but because they were continually in my face attempting to make the data useful through google now. Through no prompting google worked out where I lived and would "notify" me of my commute time every morning, except it didn't realize I was taking PT and traffic didn't affect me. Every time I had lunch at the train station it would notify me of train delays, even though I wasn't catching the train and had already left the station. More than once it notified me of a delayed flight that wasn't really delayed. So all the data I was giving to google was a net negative to me. Disabling everything is only the start though because google does a really poor job of actually respecting this. The maps app is constantly prompting me to re-enable the tracking. I'm forever one dark pattern or one urgent "just f-ing work" instance away from re-enabling this tracking. For most cases It's easier to give up google products entirely rather than be eternally and infallibly vigilant when I use my phone.
