Have you noticed how many moves they've made to make it easy to give up your location privacy to Apple? Emergency SOS is the latest one, complete with lots of submarine news articles about how OMG It Saved My Life!! This paper has many many more examples: https://www.scss.tcd.ie/doug.leith/apple_google.pdf

I look forward to your blog post where you detail your phone call to emergency services:
911: 911, what's your emergency?
You: I fell down the stairs and broke my leg. It's gushing blood everywhere!
911: What is your location?
You: Oh, no you don't! I'm not giving my location to anyone! You're just gonna have to GUESS where I am!
I like how you have to make up a hypothetical story about me because you can't say I'm wrong about Apple's pattern of data collection :)
