An investigation published by Quartz has revealed Android phones have been tracking users using cell towers since the beginning of 2017, “even when location services are disabled.” This allows Android devices to send information back to Google.
Quartz rightly points out that this goes “far beyond a reasonable consumer expectation of privacy.”
ibankcoin notes that even a brand new Android OS phone with no sim card or service plan will report tracking data once the device is connected to a WiFi network or activated.
