The cool thing about T-Mobile is they don't ask for your SSN or care about what name you give if you do pre-paid in cash. This anonymity means that if the bad guys call up T-Mobile and know all your details and they even have a compromised employee with full access, the bad guys still can't find out your real IMEI or phone number and do a sim swap. Another benefit is that, with all the cell phone location selling going on, they can't find your true location either!

- narrator 4y agoThat still doesn't fix the compromised employee problem. If they can match your identity with your phone number, and have full access to t-mobile they can sim swap. Sure, Google could have compromised employees, but I trust Google's security, especially their internal security, much more than T-Mobile.
