Thats not the issue.

Its the same as when feds ask google for location data for everyone near a crime at a given timestamp. Its violating innocent peoples privacy in large swathes.

Google stopped giving location data recently. Hope they keep going.

They never stopped. They said they would stop and then they just kept going. Google is not a trustworthy company.

"We are going to stop doing [action]" is megacorp lingo for "We are going to stop telling you that we do [action]"
