Crazy. I suppose they stopped after Google and Apple tightened their rules in 2020 regarding location tracking and not because of a change of heart.


they don't say exactly when and why they disabled the tracking except "in 2020", but in june 2020 when the original expose on their trackign appeared in the Financial Post, tims had no plans to disable the tracking, just to edit their privacy and other policy texts so that it wasn't outright them lying.

There is the above privacy investigation but also a bunch of class action lawsuits filed in multiple provinces.
