Despite all the negative sentiment against big tech, EU approves handing over tons of very personal GPS and heart rate data to google..

Google is required not to use the data for advertising and ask for consent before using it in other services for European users only. For Non-EU folk, I assume this means their data is already replicated 10x on Google servers..
