Which is why I don’t use google, never sign in to it although I’m begged to all the time.

And why I never have my wifi and location turned on on my phone.

When ever I look at the weather on my phone for my area, I’m told to turn on my location.

Don’t need to, I know where I am.

If you have an Android phone, unfortunately, Google DOES get your information, even if it is just from tower and Wifi network triangulation. You don’t have to sign in, you don’t have to have Wifi turned on (it can still passively receive) you don’t have to have location turned on.

That “free” Android OS has a price.
