Google is watching me!

Google is watching my every move.  They are tracking my cell phone.  They sent me this map of my 2019 travels.  I was a bit confused at my visit to Calgary, but they were right.  We changed planes in Calgary on our way to Quebec City.  They were missing a few places like Saguenay, Charlottetown, Sidney, NS and Boston.  Then  I scrolled down to see they have more detail on the east coast than the west coast.

1.6 times around the world
In 2019 you traveled a total distance of 63,665 km
When I showed this to Cheryl on Thursday at the Keg, she thought it was creepy.  Lexie loved it!  Maybe I should disable locations and GPS.  I would love to see an Air Canada pilots travels!

My laptop spies on me too.  If I get a call and someone asks for a hotel recommendation in Hamburg and I search it, the next time I go on my computer, hotels and things to do in Hamburg magically appear!

I refuse to have indoor security cameras, Siri or Alexa in the house as others can spy in you in your own home.  We aren't that interesting but I don't want people listen to us singing or in deep conversation.

Welcome to 2020.
