I've been looking high and low for this option. I think, contrary to one of these comments, that it's perfectly reasonable to ask for a "map on/off" toggle. I love the idea of auto‐sharing my workouts…
I know I could start and stop it away from my home, but why not just include a way to not share the private part of the data?Different individuals may consider different piece of information to be private or sensitive.

I love the idea of auto‐sharing my workouts for hype and encouragement, but I don't need Joe Schmo in Couldbecreeper, UT to know exactly where I'm at.
Use the privacy zones to hide certain areas.
Also send the idea of map privacy on/off to Garmin: https://www.garmin.com/forms/ideas/

I agree but it's par for the course for Garmin to be missing features that Strava (for example) has had for years. Honestly I don't know any runners who use the social aspects of Garmin Connect anyway. Everyone I know uses Strava for that stuff. I personally keep all my Garmin Connect activities private.
As far as that comment goes, ironically, Strava also allows you to hide HR, pace, calories, and other activity details.
