Screenshot of the “Enhanced Visual Search” setting in the Photos.app of macOS, which is enabled by default. The description of this setting reads: “Allow Photos to privately match places in your photos with a global index maintained by Apple so you can search by almost any landmark or point of interest.”

It’s enabled by default because Apple probably means “privately” here in the sense of “secretly”.
