This is particularly useful when you want privacy but don't want to completely disable the Find My iPhone feature. Your location will remain hidden from the family and friends you've shared it with until you turn to share back on. Keep in mind that even with location sharing paused, your device can still be located if lost or stolen – maintaining your device's security while respecting your privacy needs.
Remember: You can also quickly adjust location sharing for specific contacts through the Find My app without affecting the overall Find My iPhone functionality.
