Google didn't announce plans to stop storing a copy of user location data on their servers until the middle of last year.

See the story linked above.

They didn't announce that they could no longer access user location data on their servers to respond to geofence warrants until the last quarter of 2024.

We're talking iCloud and data encryption compared to Google's Android Cloud E2EE, and you're doing maps.

Were talking about protecting your personal data from government overreach, and Google's entire business model is to collect as much of your personal data as possible and store it on their servers to make ad sales more profitable.

Apple does its best not to collect personal data in the first place.
