T-Mobile said it intends to fight a $91.6 million fine proposed by the FCC against the carrier related to unauthorized sales of customers' real-time location data to third-parties.



The FCC announced (PDF) last week that it was issuing Notices of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture and Admonishment (NALs) to T-Mobile, AT&T, Sprint and Verizon, with the collective penalties totaling about $209 million.
