That's patently false. It's in that giant ToS that you didn't read and did sign. Here's where it is in T-Mobile's ToS [1].
You're looking for either,
"To identify and suggest products or services that might interest you;
To make internal business decisions about current and future product and service offerings;
To provide you customized user experiences, including personalized product and service offerings;"
or
"If your device is turned on, our network is collecting data about the device location.

- cyphar 7y agoIt should be noted that, in the context of a phone where you have to click "Agree" in order to use it, you could argue the ToS is effectively a EULA. And the enforceability of EULAs is a fairly complicated topic, it's not as cut-and-dry as "you signed it".
- lotsofpulp 7y agoI think the bigger issue is that there are only 4 mobile networks and if none of them offer an option for privacy, then you're not really "choosing" anything since having access to the mobile network is integral to modern life.

- drawnwren 7y agoI'm unsure if you're being disingenuous or legitimately don't understand the wording. "To identify and suggest products or services that might interest you" -- means your data can be shared or sold to be used in advertising models. "To provide you customized user experiences, including personalized product and service offerings;" -- same "We may ... provide access to, or disclose ... location data without your approval to ... operate and improve ... our business," ellipses added so you can see it literally says we can give your data away for money.
