If you are using an Android smartphone with Google Play Services which send your location and more every 15 minutes to Google, the GeoClue2 service will probably be quite harmless. But I still just selected a spot on the map. I see no need to have a system service running for that. If you like to use geoclue I bet "geoclue-2.0" would be the package to install. Here is some detail on how it tries to determine your location: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/geoclue/geoclue/-/wikis/home See for yourself whether you are okay with that. -- Martin - please no carbon copy to me
