That is your triangulation from the towers and GPS augmentation that is tracking you. Google is allowed to use position information from the cellular network. Your phone is not actively spying on you. Now, if you are actively using Google maps for navigation then of course Google knows where you are. Your phone is engaged in very active communications with Google the entire time.
If you want better navigation without the Google connection, get a Garmon GPS device.
I’m not sure what you’re not understanding, or if you’re just responding without reading, but I DIDN’T HAVE MY PHONE WITH ME WHEN GOOGLE WAS TRACKING MY CAR.
Dude...
