The iPhone 11 Pro’s Location Data Puzzler
Not sure I see much of a story here. Turning off location services globally works as expected, but turning off location services app-by-app lets the system itself still utilize location services (for unknown system things):<p><i>“We do not see any actual security implications,” an Apple engineer wrote in a response to KrebsOnSecurity. “It is expected behavior that the Location Services icon appears in the status bar when Location Services is enabled. The icon appears for system services that do not have a switch in Settings” [emphasis added].</i>
