Verizon Wireless, the United States largest telecom operator, has moved into the mobile ad business.
They have been serving ads since May 2014.
As per the law only those who have opted for CPNI can be monitored through such methods.
By default, the information appears to consist of demographic and geographic segments.
Whatever the merits of Verizons new business model, the technical design substantial shortcomings.
Second, while Verizon offers privacy prefs, they dont prevent sending the X-UIDH header.
If you have enabled the privacy parameters all it does is prevent Verizon from selling information about a user.
Much better designs are possible.
