this. Only that each of your devices will keep its own Timeline, but I
think that's more a disadvantage than a feature.

 Maybe there's no or too little market for the location data?

I think their T&C say the timeline data is for the user's eyes only?
As part of the change from cloud to device storage, the do ask for permission to make the data available to advertisers, of course I said no.

It's the
only reason I can think of, considering it's Google. So maybe there're
now so many apps snarfing up location data, Google can't find buyers? At
least at the prices they want? Or everyone who wants that data already
built it into their app so no market?
