Google Location Services: Turn off the service completely

The location function () που έχει προσθέσει η Google στο λειτουργικό της σύστημα Android, συνήθως χρησιμοποιείται από κάποιες that offer location services. For example the Google Maps application.

However, the Location service, in addition to giving us valuable information about our location, also promotes Google device location information.Google

Η λειτουργία "Τοποθεσία" δεν είναι ενεργοποιημένη από προεπιλογή, αλλά οι εφαρμογές, οι υπηρεσίες της Google και οι εφαρμογές τρίτων μπορούν να ζητήσουν από τον χρήστη - ιδιοκτήτη της συσκευής την πρόσβαση να χρησιμοποιούν την υπηρεσία.

A recent The DM XIXIX The XX; XOXOO O O O-DM; by AP News reports that Google also has other means to acquire valuable location data even on devices where site functionality is disabled.

According to the publication, Google uses several systems to acquire location data. Location mode is one of these, even if it is not enabled or is turned on and not used. Google can get location data through web site activities, but also from apps and other services that run at the device level.

The post gives some examples: when you open the Google Maps app, a snapshot of your location is automatically saved. The automatics στις εφαρμογές που σας ενημερώνουν για τις καιρικές συνθήκες, ή ακόμη και αναζητήσεις που δεν σχετίζονται με καμία τοποθεσία μπορεί να αποθηκεύουν πληροφορίες "ακριβούς γεωγραφικού πλάτους και γεωγραφικού μήκους" στον συνδεδεμένο λογαριασμό σας της Google.

The key issue with the new revelation is that most Android users probably do not know that location information may be stored in their account even if the site is turned off.

The AP reviewed Google location tracking on an Android device that had completely disabled location functionality. The device would still have location-based data in the user's Google account.

Google's website appears to be the only way to disable data collection by the company, yes even if you don't allow Android to send location data.
