The fact that Apple Maps integrates Yelp is a big red flag for me, and I think a big hole in their privacy story. It's why I am more comfortable using Google Maps than Apple Maps.

The data doesn't come directly from Yelp AFAIK. It goes throught Apple's servers. Yelp isn't queried directly.

Again this is from my memory of MITM proxying iOS.

They are still promoting that garbage company though (for a lot of other reasons besides privacy).
