	Ok, fair enough. Actually you can and should send the data not to any phone company but to some personal computer you control or some people close to you control (as TDS Zenaan already mentioned)

	And the whole system is just some rather simple program running on the phone. You probably can already get such an 'app' in the nsa-google-store? ;)

	Make sure your backdoored phone doesn't detect your trigger signal and shuts down =)
