So either abortion clinic visits are illegal (and laws attempting to criminal nalize getting an abortion in another state are on dubious legal footing, at best) or they are not.
If the visit is illegal, deleting only this data (as compared to just deleting all location data as a matter of routine) is aiding and abetting.
If the visit is legal (by far the most likely circumstance) then this data is merely embarrassing. And if Google is deleting specific location data on the basis it could be embarrassing, then I will demand (with tongue VERY firmly in cheek) that they also delete strip club location history data.
But in all seriousness, they should just stop saving location history in the first place. I am exceptionally tired of our technological overlords deciding that I can either choose to give up all of my data with no recourse, or choose not to function in modern society.
