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?

Okay so it doesn't matter that I don't let them collect it in the first place so there's no reason to turn it on, cool.

Unless you're wrong of course, but I trust you, random paragraph I encountered anonymously on an internet forum and engaged with for 8 seconds before moving on with my life forever. You couldn't possibly have a vested interest in misleading me and hey my coffee is ready.
