I don’t if it’s still the case , but in stock ROM Androids it would track your location history even with location services turned off.

That article is about turning "location history" off, not turning "location services" off.

Full disclosure I work at Google but nothing related to that.

It shouldn't take a Google employee to tell all those location options apart.
Apparently journalists at wired can't tell the difference.
