   T-Mobile is one of the major network service providers in the United   
   States, alongside AT&T and Verizon. The carrier has worked its way   
   through to raise its reputation in the market and often calls itself   
   the "Un-carrier". It has been crowned one of the best 5G providers in   
   the country. However, it appears that even the best 5G company is   
   involved in some of the phishy activities, and in this case, it   
   appears that T-Mobile is selling user data to advertisers.   
      
   The company formally launched its advertising platform App Insights   
   (via Ad Exchanger) earlier this month. The program has been in the   
   beta testing phase for the past year, but it has been formally   
   introduced now with a new name. What the App Insights program does is   
   that it allows advertisers and marketers to directly buy user data   
   from the carrier, T-Mobile, itself. In a world where Apple and Google   
   are taking steps to curb data collection, T-Mobile is using its   
   platform to sell user data directly to the advertisers.
