I believe all requests made to the Apple Maps service does the same thing Siri requests do and cycle through brand new unique identifiers every 15 minutes, making it so Apple can’t identify requests made over more than a few minutes as coming from the same device (and it includes no other identifying information).

Not that I’m concerned about this “vulnerability,” but surely for navigation trips longer than 15 minutes it would be easy to correlate requests to a single user, given that each request probably needs to include the origin and destination and those are probably unique to one user at any given time.
