Ask HN: Did anyone just get prompted by Google Chrome with a privacy form?

Here's the screenshot[0] of the survey widget Google just sent me to. Did anyone else here just get a "Privacy Checkup" notification in Chrome for something like this? I think it happened when I opened a new tab.

I was a bit upset to find out that Google ignored my request to turn off tracking my location, which I remember disabling a few weeks ago. I don't recall ever turning these settings on.

In the lower right corner, they asked me a bunch of questions about how I think they are handling my privacy.
