How much information do you think your mobile phone company has about you? Your address, your bank details... what about your religion? Or your sexuality? Does it know if you've been speeding?

Give this a few seconds of thought. The phone companies already have a pretty good idea of who you are, where you are and where you go - especially if your phone has GPS capabilities. Valuable info. They would love to sell it.
