AT&T’s privacy policy states:
“We will not sell your personal information to anyone, for any purpose. Period.”
How is this not contrary to that?
Additionally, they define personal information as:
"Personal Information: Information that directly identifies or reasonably can be used to figure out the identity of a customer or user, such as your name, address, phone number and e-mail address. Personal Information does not include published listing information."

- shostack 9y agoAs a data collector, they can rent access to the data via their ad inventory and technically not be "selling your personal information."
