Julia, hey.
Jim. Are you here for Sunday brunch?
No, I'm here to see you.
What? How did you know I was here?
What do you mean, how? Duh.
Duh, what? What am I looking at?
Oh, family sharing. That blinking green dot, that's you.
You're tracking me?
No. No, I don't have to track you. You're sharing your location with me. I just have to look at my phone. Again, the blinking green dot...
I know what the blinking dot is, Jim. But tracking me is not the intended use of that application.
It's entirely the intended use of that application. You share your location with your family so your family knows your location.
You and I are now ex-family.
Tell that to your phone. You're the one who opted into the sharing.
When we were married.
And just like we opted out of that, you gotta opt out of this, but that's not important.
Yes, it is. As of this moment, I am opting out of the family tracking. I am opting. I am scrolling. I am searching. I am... God, where the hell is it?
Go to Settings.
I'm under Settings.
Okay. Take a deep breath.
Don't tell me how to breathe. There! I am no longer sharing my location. I am no longer a blinking dot. I am a no dot. I have disappeared.
I can still see you.
You can't just track me down in person anymore, Jim. We gotta reboot our boundaries conversation.
OK. I am sorry that I used the quite common, quite useful family-sharing feature that was invented so that when people are kidnapped, they can be rescued. But I guess you would rather don some magical cloak of invisibility so that you can vanish without a trace whenever somebody close to you needs you. Noted.
