          For the record, Geolocation is under Advanced > Privacy > Site Settings > Location (or just type Location in the search in Settings). The two choices are Ask (the default) and Block, so if you turn off the toggle next to Ask then no one will get your location from Google. They may still be able to guess your location from your IP address, though not as accurately. (When they use my IP address they think I'm 5 miles east of here.)
