Already checking with privacy team at GSMA:
I have a question for you – I am working with some people from Mozilla and Google on a draft idea for a Data Info API. What we’re thinking of doing is providing the user with some details about their mobile operator account plans via the interface of the operating system. Mozilla could then use this when, say, building FirefoxOS to allow a user to view their plan and find out which apps are costing them more money due to sending data, polling or updates, and allow a user to react. The data is obviously sensitive, so we’re designing the API to return the data only to the user, and to no other party. Some people have flagged that even this might be illegal in some countries, and suggested I talk to you. What do you think? Is it super illegal? Let me know if you want more information about this first!!!
