I will try this when it is out of beta TestFlight mode. Not having GPS connected sounds good, but I think that our cell carriers are already selling our location data to anyone who pays for it.

I have location turned off on all Google apps (and really, except for the Google app that feeds me interesting stories/news to read, I only use paid for services like GCP).

Both my wife and I have switched to Apple Maps. I wish that Apple provided privacy cellphone service. Right now, Apple, ProtonMail, and a few other options are my best bet for maintaining a little bit of privacy. I don’t so much care about the government having my data, but I hate large corporations having it.
