Google is being sued by Washington, Texas, and Indiana, and the District of Columbia over deceptive location tracking practices.

“Google falsely led consumers to believe that changing their account and device settings would allow customers to protect their privacy and control what personal data the company could access,” said DC Attorney General Karl Racine in a statement. “The truth is that contrary to Google’s representations it continues to systematically surveil customers and profit from customer data.”

Google also immediate published a document about how it protects user privacy, and keeps users in control of their ad experience. [blog.google...]

As always it is in the fine print ... particularly that print too small to see.
