The reason the location history is not local is because the data is for Timeline, a feature of Google Maps which has its own web site. If the data were only local, I wouldn't be able to use a web browser on my computer to peruse my Timeline and photos from my phone. It would be broken.

What are you talking about? We know google is keeping tracking data despite users turning it off.

But Apple is not.

Read the article.
I did, and it supports my point.

Nowhere does it say anything about apple tracking people.

What’s your point?
