    Lol. The only thing this setting does is hide the information from the user. Google, or a thousand other data brokers (many probably created by Google for this purpose) still retain that data indefinitely.

      categorically false. literally do a little bit of research. it is stored on-device entirely now, and Google has no access to it.
