Unfortunately, this does not say that it turns off reporting of
encountered SSIDs, (router) MAC address, and Cell ID information. I
think if you opt not to use this data to determine your own location, it
is still reported to Google to improve accuracy for those who use
Google's location services.
In the location mode you could tell it to use a combination of one of the
following 1. GPS, Wi-Fi and mobile networks 2. Wi-Fi and mobile networks and
3. only mobile networks. I will have to look into how and what exactly it
sends to Google in case you choose to report location data.
Cell phone users get tracked no matter what. The only consolation is that you
don't know about it.
