On the contrary, you should expect them to put more effort into using that stuff in ways that don’t benefit you than in ways that do.
Let’s go with one example. There’s this United Payments Interface (UPI) app called Google Pay.
They let you add a comment when paying.
go to Google Checkout and download previous years payment data to help with accounting and you don’t get the comments along with it. You have to go into the app and open each entry, one-by-one to see what was what.
They keep the timing information of when you pay.
They also know which tower you were connected to at what time
They also have location data from Maps being open at the same time
This would tell that they have the ability to let you check the exact position at which you paid
But will they let you? No. Even the timeline feature doesn’t give accurate history.
Because somehow they believe we will think that their database is that inaccurate and we are somehow safe (despite having the driving navigation on at the time)
They started removing handy features to access timeline features from desktop.
somehow acting like it is making stuff more secure, when all it is doing, is reducing our ability to access our own data, while their “partners” can still do so.
