To protect mobile search revenue. I get what you meant, I'm just saying Google doesn't need your location history and your assorted other meta data to profit off you. They just need to ensure Apple can never close the door on search to them.

Google is in competition with Facebook who have tremendous amounts of data available for advertisers to use.

So yes they do feel the need to collect as much data as possible.
