Google pls go eat shit.
I just found out that my phone has somehow automatically enabled “find my device” - a service provided to you by google where they automatically send your last location data to google sothat you can find your device again in case you lost it somewhere.
Not only do i seriously question that that service is even useful at all - i mean, if somebody stole it, the first thing they would do is reset the device which obviously wipes any way to track the device anyways; but also what’s actually infuriating is that google is building these databases of a billion android devices and their movement data without my consent. like, not in a single moment have i consented to this; in fact i only found out through an accident. fuck google. it needs to die, quickly.
I’ve used find my device my device plenty of times when I’m not sure if I left my phone somewhere. It’s pretty useful. I just go to Google and type find my phone and it asks me which device and then gives me a button to make it ring and shows me it’s location.
I haven’t used it as much as now I have a Garmin watch that tracks my every movement and that has a button to make my phone ring.
