I didn't see anything in the article that said they are (for sure) not retaining this data.

"Google could purge some or all of your location history when it sunsets Timeline’s web access" -- or they might not. It just won't be available to the user.

What would be the point of moving to an on-device approach AND keep the data remotely as well? Just keep it remotely as it currently is, no?
