Agreed, but using Google, Google Maps or almost any app on your device requires giving permissions to the app to use many aspects of your phone and nobody ever reads the T's and C's.



I guess people who don’t have FB or a smartphone probably don’t use google apps either.

How many people on here have parents that don’t have a smartphone?
I reckon you would be shocked by how many have them these days.
My parents are in their 70’s and not too tech savvy but a smartphone is a necessity for them as it is how they communicate with the grandkids. Mum is always on FB or Instagram chatting to them

If the person is too old to own a smart phone, or use Facebook then I would think it's unlikely they'd be doing much travelling around the city anyway, or socialising with random people.

They’re old, not dead!
They can still get about and socialise.

Of all the people I know over 60ish I’d say it’s about half and half at a rough guess.
There are no stupid questions, just stupid people.

I've downloaded the app, and will delete it when things settle down. In the meantime I don't care what they get off my phone as there is never anything that would worry me on it. I tidy it up regularly anyway. I don't use the phone for financial transactions as I prefer to do that via a computer I know is secure becaause I check and clean it every weekend. (I used to be a partner in an IT business iin Melbourne.)

I don't use Facebook etc. and I closed down LinkedIn after too many past patients started trying to contact me via that.

Many years ago I was interviewed by ASIO after my written correspondence with the Russian Embassy - about their health system and economic history - my then wife was studying Economic history at Uni.

I was quite cheerful about being interviewed and curious about what they were focussed on. The ASIO guy and I met and had a frank but civil discussion for about an hour, shook hands and parted on good terms.
