Subject: T-Mobile is now selling app usage data to advertisers, but
iPhone users are in the clear
T-Mobile is ramping up its efforts to cash in on the lucrative
advertising business. The carrier has officially launched its new "App
Insights" program after more than a year in beta. App Insights allows
marketers to buy user data directly from T-Mobile, with a particular
emphasis on data showing which apps you have on your phone and which
apps you regularly use.
T-Mobile's creepy new App Insights program
News of the official launch of T-Mobiles App Insights program was
first reported by Ad Exchanger after an interview with Jess Zhu, the
carriers head of advertising products and development. Essentially,
App Insights is a new app-based analytics platform that allows
marketers to track, segment and target T-Mobile wireless subscribers
based on the apps they have installed on their phone and their
engagement patterns.

Subject: Verizon and AT&T customers are suing T-Mobile for raising
their prices (yes, really)
By Adrian Diaconescu
Like pretty much all large tech companies and household names in
competitive consumer-facing industries, T-Mobile, owner Deutsche
Telekom, and former Sprint parent SoftBank have undoubtedly faced
their fair share of lawsuits over the years.
T-Mo, for one, found itself under some arguably well-deserved legal
scrutiny relatively recently after failing to keep millions of
customers safe from an unprecedented cyberattack less than a year ago,
and now the "Un-carrier" is in (a bit of) hot water again... for the
weirdest reason.

Subject: Lawmakers ask FTC to investigate mobile tracking by Apple,
Google
By Monica AllevenJun 24, 2022 12:14pm
Apple and Alphabet's Google are in the crosshairs again as four
lawmakers are calling on the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to
investigate how they use their mobile phone operating systems to track
consumers.
The Democratic lawmakers sent a letter Friday to FTC Chair Lina Khan
saying that Apple and Google knowingly facilitated harmful practices
"by building advertising-specific tracking IDs into their mobile
operating systems," the Wall Street Journal reported.
