8. They aren't creating a network

Just the phone.
That means they're buying time from AT&T, Verizon, or Cricket (who buys from Verizon IIRC).
All the data goes straight to to the government no matter whose phone you choose.
But the trumpies MIGHT have a slightly better claim to said data if they "own" it first.
It will be interesting to see what their user terms and conditions, privacy statement, and confidentiality agreements contain.
I wouldn't advocate buying any phone without reading all three of those.
