Not quite. I had my phone stolen in December, and due to people telling me they called and texted me I called at&t. They were able to tell me over the phone that yes I should have had notification when I put my sim cars in the new phone. However, by law they could only read me what they saw. They needed me to get an attorney to subpoena a physical copy.

I am also very curious how this middle man issue makes carriers feel. There's a HUGE difference in carrier licked devices, and unlocked devices. Think about it like this... If it's carrier locked you are not the administrator of that device. This also makes me wonder how companies with proprietary IP is going to take this.

This shit is so fucked!

An Annapolis, Maryland-based company, Berla Corporation, provides the technology to some car manufacturers but does not offer it to the general public, the lawsuit said. Once messages are downloaded, Berla’s software makes it impossible for vehicle owners to access their communications and call logs but does provide law enforcement with access, the lawsuit said.

Many car manufacturers are selling car owners’ data to advertisers as a revenue boosting tactic, according to earlier reporting by Recorded Future News. Automakers are exponentially increasing the number of sensors they place in their cars every year with little regulation of the practice.
