Corporations have done this for decades. Literally.
This is you getting extra pissy because someone wrote an article you only half understand to rile you up.
"Everyone else is doing it" is not a good excuse.
This entire thread is "tell me you've never worked with an ocio in operations" without saying the words. Clearly none of you work in technology and probably screech every time there is a big privacy breach. Location contextual requests are basic shit that nearly every company dealing with any sort of technology compliance does.
