  1. It’s also android phones. All of the shots in the article are of android phones.

  2. This is likely just recording sessions of the carrier’s app, not everything on your phone. Session recording for CS and UX is pretty common these days. It can be impossible to identify a problem unless you actually see what is happening in the app.

That said, you have to ask for consent for this shit. A lot of companies don’t alert customers when they release a new tool that requires privacy consent.

Sorry to lazy to go through articles like this, do they mention if this is just in the US or something? Or do they also do this in the EU?

Does T-Mobile operate in Europe? I thought they were a US carrier.

Sorta yes and no. T-Mobile US is its own corporate entity, but their majority shareholder is Deutsche Telekom, and they take their name from that company’s mobile service brand.
