   It's a clear privacy violation, and, the law says so as they're   
   the ones who made Google allow us to opt out (we discussed that   
   in detail already, so there's no need for me to rehash it).

   You didn't read this thread.   
   The information is downright scary and creepy.   
      
   > So why on earth do you ask this question?   
      
   For the same reason that some governments made it a law that   
   Google had to allow us to opt out of this spying on us.

   > Android saves on Google servers relating to WiFI connections you have used?   
      
   What other data are you alluding to?
