> Wouldn’t it be awesome if, immediately after checking into a café on Facebook, Apple Music updates this Mood section to Focus/Study playlists?

This strikes me as being extremely, invasively creepy -- although I can appreciate that some people might find this cool.

FWIW, Google Play Music already does something similar. It knows I'm at the location I have my work set to, and one of the playlist categories it's showing in my home feed is "Working to a Beat - Looks like you're at work".
I find it interesting that this would happen based on a cafe location rather than a library...
Reminds me of the recent article about cafés turning off wifi to stop people using them as offices.
