In fact, Google does not clearly inform users about how to track their location.'It is wrong to store data about locations that violate installed user settings,' said Princeton computer scientist Jonathan Mayer.'If you allow users to turn off' Location HIstory 'then all locations saved in that location history must be turned off'.
A Google spokesperson said they were very clear about their tracking policy.'There are many ways Google uses your location to increase the user experience, including Location History, Web & App Activity and Location Services on the device.'
So to completely turn off location tracking, users will have to turn off both Location History and Web & App Activity.
In fact, according to the Associated Press, 'Google has exactly described how History works, but you only see it when you turn it off - it's a pop-up that appears when' stopping 'Location History on the Google account page. .Another pop-up appears when you turn on the Web & App Activity again, but because it is turned on by default, users will not normally know.
Last year, Google earned $ 95.4 billion from location-related advertising activities, so it's no wonder they hide the way these services are turned off.
