Subject: Deutsche Telekom aims for 50% T-Mobile ownership before 2024
By Linda Hardesty - Aug 11, 2022
During its second quarter 2022, Deutsche Telekom raised its guidance
for the second time this year. The company's EBITDA is now
expected= to reach around $38 billion (€billion), up from
the previous guidan= ce of more than $37.8 billion (€36.6
billion). DT attributed the rise to the positive development of
business at T-Mobile US as well as strong performance outside the U.S.
DT executives praised the record subscriber growth at T-Mobile in the
second quarter 2022, noting that mobile postpaid net additions were
the best-ever customer growth in a second quarter and more than AT&T's
and Verizon's sub growth combined.

By Mike Dano, Editorial Director, 5G & Mobile Strategies
T-Mobile officials said the company is no longer relying on Sprint's
legacy wireline network to carry its wireless traffic. As a result,
the company said it took a non-cash impairment charge of $477 million
in the second quarter.
During T-Mobile's recent quarterly earnings call, CEO Mike Sievert was
asked whether the company was packaging Sprint's wireline operation
for a possible sale.

Subject: Opinion: T-Mobile and Deutsche Telekom lie to customers
With more than a hundred million subscribers in the USA, T-Mobile USA
– the largest subsidiary of the German company Deutsche Telekom –
collects more personal information about more people in the USA than
any other U.S. subsidiary of a parent corporation based in the
European Union. T-Mobile USA is thus the single most important test of
the applicability to EU-based companies' U.S. subsidiaries of European
data protection rules and the privacy and data protection promises
made by European multinational companies on behalf of their worldwide
subsidiaries.
This matters because European laws and the stated policies of European
companies like Deutsche Telekom typically claim to provide much better
privacy protection than U.S. laws. People in the U.S. like me who care
about privacy often chose to give our business to European companies,
which often operate in the U.S. through subsidiary corporations they
control, in order to obtain greater protection for our personal
information than if we dealt with U.S.-based companies. But do these
European companies practice what they preach?
