Can you explain this to the layman? How does it work? Does it mean they store IMSI hashes with location data in one database and customer names and their IMSI in another and nobody supposedly should have access to both databases at the same time?
- wastedhours 7y agoThat's the explanation I'd expect the answer to be. In Europe it'd be classified as pseudo-anonymous, and would still be personally identifiable data in the legal sense, and therefore not truly "anonymised".
- mytailorisrich 7y agoThe network stores the location of connected users at cell level (group of cells, sometimes) because that information is required to page (ie receive calls) and then to route traffic.
