I deleted my moves account last weekend and exported all my data, i dont trust facebook with all this data.. but then i logged in into google and saw this: https://maps.google.com/locationhistory

Man man, what was i naive.

You know that's opt-in, right? And you can just click the gear or go here https://maps.google.com/locationhistory/b/0/settings and click "Disable" and then "Save".

i think you need it on to take advantage of many of google now's features

That's because the features require location data. If you don't want the downsides of location data, you can't get the advantages either.
