  • Even with a dumb phone, they have

    • Your identity, IE real name and address.
    • Location history
    • Contacts (since you’re forced to use SMS)
    • Message history in plain text

    So I don’t doubt that they’re at least aggregating message history and selling data/trends about certain topics to advertisers and anyone who will buy it.

    Plus if they know that your most contacted person is also texting/searching about certain things, they can safely sell that also and present ads to you based on their interests.
