Idk what happened, but suddenly location services start to work after macOS 10.15.6 incremental update. For now closing the issue

Issue appeared again, after using Big Sur, so I reopen it

Found why it doesn't show: Location is determined using WiFi card. As we know, now we use itlwm.kext for Intel WiFi, and it emulates Ethernet device, but not a WiFi device, as AppleIntelWiFiV2.kext does. So, location is determined using WiFi connectivity. For now issue will get wontfix because there is no way for now to fix location. We need to wait for AppleIntelWifiV2.kext developer to fix Intel Wireless AC 8260 WiFi card
