Well, yes, it's all convenience. So is having a phone in the first place. Or access to easy transportation. I'd argue that it's convenient to the point of being impractical to do without.
The obvious answer is not to get an iphone. Today it’s android, tomorrow it’s apple—you’re willingly using a massive closed stack to handle your location at all times. Trust is simply naive.
If you accept you’re trading privacy, security, and money for a massively convenient liability, you’ll be much happier.
