I am being forced into installing Life360 on my phone, which as you all probably know, is a massive privacy violation. Just by looking through the AppStore data page, lots of sensitive information gets shared with third parties. There’s got to be a way to disable it, and only enable it when necessary right? Or am I out of options here? Even though it’s only slightly less of a privacy risk, I’d prefer using Apple’s find my service, which has most of the features that Life360 has, while also being built in to every iOS device. How do I reason with this person?

    Faraday bags work great for this - just remeber they completely block all signals (not just GPS but also calls/texts), so you’ll be unreachable when using it, which might cause suspicion if you’re “off grid” too long.
