I am both in awe and worried. Some of those places I have never been to.

Now these are not always places I have put into a Google search entry.

Those places will be somewhere picked up by a GPS enabled Android device
that's logged in as you and enabled for location history.


I have been watching my location history for some time. A couple of
years ago I spent a day at the Great Dorset steam fair. As far as my
location history was concerned I had spent most of the day in a field in
Dorset with a couple of quick trips during the day to Liverpool.

I can only assume that the portable mobile mast being used at the GDSF
had previously been used in Liverpool and was reporting a false location
- to Google at least if not to the telcos.

Other than that it has been pretty good.

If using location history on a PC the settings cog allows you to show
raw data which comes complete with an error ring
