Do not forget that as every SIM card comes embedded with a serial number
that does most of the identification and not the actual phone number
printed on the box, each telephone also has a serial number. Those two
strings are stored just like anything else, like location updates,
number you have called or have called you and so on. If Sony does have
years old registration data and credit card numbers in its possesion,
I'd say it's sane to assume the phone company stores this data for ever.
So giving that phone to your brother in law or lending it from a
highschool friend doesn't make much of a difference.
