Turn off Find my iPhone if you don't want to be tracked through your iCloud

Find my iPhone can be useful if you've lost your phone, but if you're concerned about having your location tracked with the feature, you can turn it off.

Find my iPhone lets your iPhone send your location out so it can be tracked through your iCloud account. This is extremely useful if you've lost your iPhone and need to find it, but it does mean that your location is out there to find. If you have your iPhone with you and you don't want to risk being tracked, you can turn off Find my iPhone in your settings. While you're at it, you can also turn off the ability for your iPhone to keep tracking of the locations you frequent — here's how you do both.
