To me, it's absolutely news that Google Maps data can taint my entire IP address across all Google services.
Ultimately, sure, great, I realize Google is going to Google, but this is absolutely not something I've seen discussed previously.
When in .mx your cell phone location was on, and you used apps like Google maps at least partially through the house/hotel wifi which you tunneled to exit in USA? If so, that tied the "trusted" phone location to the IP you used to exit traffic in USA.
