Google keeps a history of your locations even when Location History is off

In a wonderfully clear example of "dark patterns" designed to mislead users and retain control over their data, Google continues tracking your location even when you turn off Location History and are told that "the places you go are no longer stored." Google says it tells users, but its disclosure is the bare minimum and users are discouraged from further interference with data collection. https://ift.tt/2Bkuitt support@endlesssupplies.ca (Endless Supplies .Ca) August 13, 2018 at 07:30PM
