McDonald’s (in Germany at least) needs your location to “see when you arrive at the restaurant”. What the hell?! That doesn’t even work properly and they force it on me! I uninstalled the app and now I am actually happy, because without the promotion and discount stuff, I don’t eat McDanks that often anymore.

In Linux you can actually (un)install features you want (or don’t want) without the whole system breaking.

I think another important factor is how famous you are. I’d imagine it’s really annoying to get recognised anywhere you go…
