If you have been living under a rock for the last 24h (like me at Tracking Protection WG F2F ;) ), this news [1] is quite impressive.
If you reside in the UK and you are one of the millions
of subscribers to mobile operator O2, you may be alarmed
to learn that the carrier is sending your mobile number
to every website you visit on your mobile phone.

In your HTTP headers, there is a "x-up-calling-line-id" header with the phone number. :)
