Google keeps asking about turning on my location timeline, trying to push for me to turn ON Ad tracking.
Are they stupid? If I’m the type of person who went out of his way to turn this crap off …do they really think saying “Your in Control” is going to encourage me to turn this s*** back on?

OP, I’m not going to castigate you for your Google usage. I am going to assume that you are aware of the privacy concerns when dealing with Google since you are posting here in a Privacy chan. Sometimes, people are required to use Google services and there is no way around that. If that were my situation, I’d use a sandbox, VPN, 7 diff proxies, and a hazmat suit. If this Google usage is not required by say an employer, I’d find something more private.
Google does have some pretty cool technology. Unfortunately most of it, if not all, is built off of data theft.
