> (This is why T-Mobile in the US is now blocking Apple's "Private Relay" encrypted service and are complaining loudly - it's costing them sniffing-data-resale revenue.) I'm fairly sure this was shown to be false. From memory, they were shown only to be blocking it on their "family monitoring" opt in plan - i.e where they sniff and intercept at the behest of the owner. As far as I know, no US mobile carriers are blocking it beyond this. Do you have evidence of this? > The carriers are monitoring all of your unencrypted DNS traffic (and your unencrypted SNI traffic that starts all of your TLS/SSL connections that says to which hostname you're connecting) and selling it, alongside your phone number and name. You're probably right they're collecting it, but adding PII and selling it doesn't pass the Litmus test for me. Do you have any evidence or sources of this? Whilst the advice you provide is sound, it appears to be built on unfounded falsehoods.
