Google Maps is convenient it is also known as very indiscreet offers long view the history of his journeys, including its web version. But this time, the engine goes much further with the Timeline feature for PC and Android that will delight paranoid spouses. This function makes it possible to simply display and with much more precision, absolutely all of its routes and trips made over a period.
The engine can also view places crossed to the nearest meter, on such date, this time, by what means of locomotion (car, on foot, metro …), brief Google knows everything about you (we already knew) and you show it once again. And that’s not all. The pictures you have taken during these trips can even be displayed
Convenient and scary especially at a time … But to avoid further accusations of widespread surveillance, Google lets you still hand over your privacy. It is also necessary to consider and avoid default settings. The history is switched off or erasable at any time. The photos are those that have been uploaded to Google Photos. Finally, Timeline will only work if the GPS function is enabled.
So those who do not want to be tracked will interest configure their application carefully because the side effects of such a service could be devastating …
