In 2022 T-Mobile agreed to pay US$350 million as part of a settlement to resolve claims it failed to prevent a data breach that affected 76 million Americans. In August 2021, T-Mobile announced it had been the victim of a data breach that compromised sensitive information of current, former and prospective customers. The breach did not affect financial information but did compromise sensitive personal identifiers such as names, addresses, dates of birth, ID information and even some Social Security numbers. Plaintiffs in the case argue that the data breach could have been prevented or mitigated through reasonable cybersecurity measures but, due to T-Mobile's negligence, occurred due to subpar protections.

In 2022 the median pay for a worker at this company was US$71,333. The CEO was paid 408 times this amount. Exorbitant CEO pay is a major contributor to rising inequality. CEOs are getting more because of their power to set pay, not because they are increasing productivity or possess specific, high-demand skills. The economy would suffer no harm if CEOs were paid less (or taxed more). In contrast, the CEO-to-typical-worker compensation ratio was 20-to-1 in 1965 and 58-to-1 in 1989.
