It’s not hard to find it. You can disable this function called “significant locations”, or you can clear its history as often as you like. You wonder why you get certain sales emails or spam calls soon after passing a store or entering some business. This data is mined, traded and sold and is big bucks.

Speaking of hidden gems, another one most are not aware of is using Chrome or Mozilla browsers, your user names and passwords for every website you’ve ever had a sign on (account) with, are recorded and easily accessible. I’ve shown this to people as well. It takes me all of 10-15 seconds to show you your usernames and passwords on a desktop or laptop. On an iPhone you still need the thumbprint or facial recognition to view the password, but on a desktop or laptop, it’s there to be had. Clean your caches often, and clean them thoroughly. This is unfortunately the world we live in now.
