Me. But I know Google and the NSA track me through a billion and a half other means regardless.

I would, but I use maps too much. Besides, I wouldn't trust Google to actually stop tracking me if they really wanted to.

Yeah I turned that off long ago. It's just a little unsettling. It turns on automatically when my phone hits 15% or less so that I can check it's last location of it's lost or whatever. Which isn't such a bad idea.
I honsetly don't care. I only turn it off because it kills my battery life, rather fast. If they want to track me, let them. Why? Because at futher date, its nice to go back and see where. Or what i did. Kinda like how people take photos of there vacation. (I block out memories because of traumatized past. This way it floods my mind with a "oh, yeah!")
Turning off location only turns off GPS location, so assuming it even actually does that and it's not just a farce, they can still easily locate you with almost as much accuracy just using your connection to the cell towers and any wifi access points around you, so I hope you also turn on airplane mode every time too.

i removed facebook from my phone long ago, as soon as the permissions for the app went to (vaguely) sharing EVERYTHING, including access to my camera and microphone.
