Google found to inconsistently delete location data for abortion clinic visits

Following reporter visits to abortion clinics in California and Florida, The Washington Post found Google did not delete location data "in any consistent way," despite promises it would "proactively delete" such sensitive user data. Reporters also discovered Google did not delete search histories related to abortions and kept location data tied to that specific search. In other instances there was not any discernable pattern to what data Google kept and what it did not, such as only listing the clinic’s location as the name of the neighborhood.
