Of course the web-connected parts like positioning on a map or sharing online broke long ago, but they appear to have neglected to build in a kill switch so mere user me can keep on getting shit done, invulnerable to their idiocy-of-the-day

Obviously one cannot prevent things like that from happening, but when they do, you can decide to migrate to something else and just sell your existing (now Google) gear, to avoid Googley issues down the line.
