This is wild, but it seems correct, none of the documentation I can find mentions opting out as a sensor that will pass data to Apple. On the other hand, on my Mac no apps are granted access to Location Services, which includes Find My. I don't have an iOS device but it seems like maybe you'd have similarly granular control?

If they are forcing you to transmit data, then it might make even more sense that Apple would steer clear of usage that could create liability for their users.
