If they want to track a mobile phone they certainly can by presenting a subpoena to the legal compliance officer at the Telcom.
I’d not be surprised if they just had some other way to obtain the data, that’s more reliable anyway. By legislating against it, maybe they dodge some contractual obligations idk, there’s a million possibilities. That’s a paranoid perspective.
In reality, I assume if I’m on the internet, or out in public, something somewhere is probably collecting data on me. Maybe that data is being linked somewhere, maybe it isn’t. I believe privacy will be history soon. I think this will ultimately be a good thing.

Oh my mistake, I was saying my take was paranoid.
Am I understanding you correctly that you think privacy won’t exist in the future? Lord, I hope that’s not the world we end up in. Otherwise 1984 will have been absolutely right.

I think you are right. My bad
Why
That answer would be a lot more obvious if the erosion started with the rich.
However, the data is still commercialy available.
