Without taking a position on this particular case, I must observe that if you are going to boycott every company that has done something that allows some government to spy on customers, your list of vendors will be down to... I was going to say your local grocery shop, but thinking about it, they probably have a credit card reader, and I'd be astonished if there weren't at least some cases of governments tracking people via credit card purchases.

If I knew that my local grocery store sent my private information to china I would boycott them too. But I'm fairly convinced that they don't do that.

It's used for their myXperia service, which is used to locate your device with a sound alert or display its position on a map. You can also erase data and/or lock your device if you lose it.[1] [1] - https://myxperia.sonymobile.com https://myxperia.sonymobile.com
