They know where you are whenever you use your cell phone. Law enforcement can track your movements based on which cell tower your phone is linking with. If you have criminal intent, just buy a burner and leave location services off. For those of us with nothing to hide, Google's location functionality is awesome and greatly enhances the functionality of my phone.
Google’s Mission Statement: To organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful. That mission statement sounds great at first- if you want to know the local movie showtimes then having that information ‘universally accessible and useful’ is very convenient. However, consider how much data Google knows about you. If you have an Android phone, you can see that Google knows everywhere you’ve been with your phone, regardless of if GPS is turned on (see your history here: www.google.com/maps/timeline). Every time you ask ‘Ok Google’ a question, your voice is saved on Google’s servers (see your history here: history.google.com/history/audio). Every single search you’ve ever made on Google is stored and analyzed by Google (see your history here: history.google.com/history/). If you use Gmail, Google knows the content of every email you’ve sent or received. Why does it matter if Google has this data? Because Google’s primary business is advertising. Google uses all of this data- your searches, your emails, your location history, even your browsing history- to generate a profile of who it thinks you are so that it can sell you as a product to potential advertisers. If you want to see what google thinks about you, visit this link to see the profile of your interests and likely demographic: www.google.com/settings/u/0/ads/authenticated. Google’s main way to make money is to get as much information about you as it can so that it can tell advertisers what you’re likely to buy and they can try to affect your purchasing decisions. “To organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful,” Google says its primary goal is. It’s great when that information is about sports, news, or stocks, but it’s not so great when that universally accessible and useful information is about you. Switch to a search engine that doesn’t view you as a product, and doesn’t exist solely to sell you to advertisers. Switch to Search Incognito.
Plus your information can and will be used against your best interest by people not looking out for you and your family. Would you tell any complete stranger everything there is to know about you AND your kids and grandkids? Well congrats for using google, any stranger can find this out. Will this info be used against populations by governments? Probably so. Welcome to the new world where the only one who knows more about you and your family is the bad guys LOL!
You can point your phone at a restaurant and " Because we know where you are " No Thanks
yeah or it can scan all your photos and identify everything in it, but don't worry we aren't aggregating that data...
