Google last week has introduced a new feature to its Google Maps called Timeline. The new feature automatically tracks your location history without any input from you.
Basically, Google keeps record of where you have been and when over the last several years, if you had any device at the time that was logged into Google. Even if you have never used Google Maps in your life time, you could have a Timeline based on the devices that your were logged in.
