@craig if your so concerned about privacy etc why not turn data off until this issue is sorted?

I think the data off idea is a bit

@b0hf its not ideal, but it stops the breach of privacy/data protection continuing until sorted.
Id personally like to see giffgaff handed a massive fine suspended for 3 years, they breach any more privacy rules then they pay. Id like o2 to get triple the fine without suspending it, and them forced to compensate giffgaff and tesco.

Kudos to giffgaff for telling the community that the issue has been acknowledged. I can confirm that I am affected to.
But LandOfDroid have told us about an alternative APN login called "bypass" which turns off the number sending.
This should mean giffgaff can command O2 to turn off the option for all giffgaff customers.

Opera mini would be a work around to this. Only Opera would see your number.
