I await in excited anticipation for a deeper explanation of your knowledge about geographic indentification, via unregistered mobile phones using internet under alias?

Hmm, if any powerful 'authority' agency wanted to find me I'm sure my chances are no better or worse than anyone else on this island. My position can certainly be triangulated fairly accurately, but there are no personal details attached to the phone which a private company can sell for marketing purposes..
Sure the triangulation works too, but the phone doesn't have to have any personal details attached to it.

I use www.hideipvpn.com... as my free vpn, they a pretty decent.
You are unlikely to find a truly free VPN offer because they are abused by forum spammer and get shut down fairly quickly.
Thanks for that, just had a look, hopefully I can get hold of one of the free account offers, if I do I shall of course share my results in this thread

I do not provide my personal details to anyone's database wherever I am not obligated to do so.
Is that what you think is being difficult?
I think it's sensible but hey, perspectives and all that
Ah, yep, I agree. There has been no attempt on my part to change the company policy though for the obvious reasons, just a request for information about my options.

Oh no.
I believe its your RIGHT not to give out info.

Your style of debate appears very dismissive. If your intention is to advise me in my life choices instead of enjoying a discussion considering the wider issue of censorship of unregistered 3G phone use, you are in no way obligated to respond in this thread.

Exctly what I meant.. Obviously, these companies want your information for you to be able to look at porn..
Just go buy a few XXX videos if you need porn that.. Or use a free vpn, a proxy ip service, or stop using the service it is all you can do.. Everyone understands here on ATS the over reaching intrusions brought on by internet usage..
ust installed and tried out SecurityKISS as you recommended, brilliant! Cheers for the link, it bypasses all the blocks, and although it has a download limit on the free version, I shall only be using it occasionally so it's perfect for me.
Got a useful VPN link from Juggernog thanks, works great, and makes a mockery of the mobile ISP wanting to control my internet access because I won't let them copy my passport and driver licence

connect through a proxy or through TOR so that they can't block you because they can't see where you are actually going.

try accessing the blocked sites by IP address instead of the DNS name.
That is my suspicion as well, personal details are certainly valuable to business.

Dont tell them who you are!!! They are using this to try to force you into telling them.
It does offer some satisfaction that the mobile company doesn't have any personal details, if only to prevent any stupid junk mail coming through the letterbox.
I'm on a non registered pay as you go too.
If a crime is suspected those that need to know will find you via location records from your isp, they can pinpoint your location to within a meter or two. Theres no need for your isp to demand your ID.
