Thank you for that information about disabling the diagnostics sending by
Apple on a Verizon iPhone.

It seems there are *multiple* places where stock Android/iOS phones send
"diagnostic" information to the mother ship, which I propose that we should
all know about.

In this case, there are two categories of mother ships:
- The platform (e.g., Apple & Google)
- The carriers (e.g., Verizon, T-Mobile, AT&T, Sprint, etc.)

That's nice that you can actually *see* the data that will be sent back to
the mother ship (in your case, back to Apple).

That's akin to my turning off Google diagnostics, which is pretty easy to
turn off - but you have to *know* where the settings are, since they're
scattered all about. 

That's why I opened *separate* threads on turning off the various
diagnostics mechanisms.

I think I've disabled the T-mobile diagnostic software, for example. 
Do you think that you've disabled the Verizon diagnostic collection?
