My wife and I have our location shared with each other 24/7. Furthermore, my sister also has mine and my wife has her sister's. It has nothing to do with trust and everything to do with safety. Perhaps the real trust is not assuming your partner will use your location to control you.

    For me, privacy is safety. The thing im most worried about is the government snatching me up in the night.

    Yay, threat profiles!

    Well, seems that having a trusted party with your location would help with that, fellow inhabitant of a fascist regime.
