Google location no more, my photos now come to use

Google is turning off their account-wide locations, it appears: only the device associated with location history will have the information, and that too inside the device, encrypted and never uploaded to the cloud. On the one hand, it seems like a good decision to protect people's privacy, and protect google from various legal liabilities. On the other hand, it means decades of my location history and planning around this specific feature is fucked. You cannot trust tech companies for anything, any feature they have now is gone in the future. This is ever more so true with google. How does one deal with this issue in an ever-aging era?
