Atleast they will show you the data, unlike phone companies who hold all this data anyway.
Once you have a phone device with an active signal you are tracked, and that's just not being paranoid either.

- pilif 13y agoThe difference between ios7 and previous versions is not that ios7 is logging. It's that ios7 is telling you that it's logging and what it is logging. Location Services always worked this way - it just wasn't exposed to the user.
