public transit and walking increased because I was on holiday. also the displayed hours do not represent the real time I was moving because google sometimes continues recording even if I go to a supermarket, take a break etc

    You are fine with google tracking you every waking moment?
    Yes, I am aware you can be tracked via other means e.g. triangulation and some such. Still, I turn off as much as I can. I try to get as little privacy invasion as possible.

      A lot of people claim that this is a ‘feature’ and welcome google into their lives. Obviously some don’t know the full extent of it all, but remember there’s people who willingly broadcast their location to the world via snapchat. Scary stuff

        Someone down voted you but you’re right. I don’t have any insights data because I set some privacy settings to not track.
