Google maps also tries to get your location when the phone starts! You can avoid all of this by running LineageOs and not installing Gapps. Or install them, and use XPrivacyLua to lie every time play services asks.

I can't do this for my daily driver (stupid work apps don't allow root without much fiddling), so I compulsively turn off location permission.

Google won't add a feature to spoof location or even block play services because of obvious reasons. The best course of action if you don't want to be tracked constantly is LineageOs or iPhone
