We’re collecting the segments of it.&lt;p&gt;The segments that he is referring to are sliced out of any given person’s navigation session. Neither the beginning or the end of any trip is ever transmitted to Apple. Rotating identifiers, not personal information, are assigned to any data or requests sent to Apple and it augments the “ground truth” data provided by its own mapping vehicles with this “probe data” sent back from iPhones.&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;techcrunch.com&amp;#x2F;2018&amp;#x2F;06&amp;#x2F;29&amp;#x2F;apple-is-rebuilding-maps-from-the-ground-up&amp;#x2F;&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;techcrunch.com&amp;#x2F;2018&amp;#x2F;06&amp;#x2F;29&amp;#x2F;apple-is-rebuilding-maps-f...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;Google Maps:&lt;p&gt;&amp;gt;Google Maps won&amp;#x27;t let you save home address without allowing all Google tracking&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&amp;#x2F;item?id=18070183&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&amp;#x2F;item?id=18070183&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;and&lt;p&gt;&amp;gt;An Associated Press investigation found that many Google services on Android devices and iPhones store your location data even if you’ve used a privacy setting that says it will prevent Google from doing so.&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;apnews.com&amp;#x2F;article&amp;#x2F;north-america-science-technology-business-ap-top-news-828aefab64d4411bac257a07c1af0ecb&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;apnews.com&amp;#x2F;article&amp;#x2F;north-america-science-technology-...&lt;/a&gt;</text><parent_chain><item><author>webmobdev</author><text>Only the naive and the ignorant believe that Apple cares about users privacy.

There&amp;#x27;s a vast array of technical instances where apple has gone above and beyond to implement privacy preserving technology, even when they weren&amp;#x27;t talking about it.
