Phone numbers visible

[doodlebug]

I see it's being reported in the UK that O2 users who access websites from their 3g phones may have their phone numbers visible to the site. Apparently when someone accesses a website on a handset the type of phone etc is sent so the the site can be loaded in the correct format, it turns out that O2 users mobile phone numbers are also being sent to the sites. This is a serious breach of data protection and could lead to some hairy instances. Not sure if the same applies here, but lets be careful out there.

LOL, I grew up in a situation where they admitted they knew what I was having for dinner on a daily basis so it doesn't frighten me, just think some users who mask ip address etc, might be concerned.
