I had a thought about AT&T using browser's user agent string to ID the Pinephone as a non-whitelisted device. What about when phones use their cellular data connection for internet hot-spots? Basically any kind of device or browser might be connecting through the provider's network in that situation. How would AT&T distinguish between a Pinephone browser reporting that it's running on a Linux computer and any number of other devices that might be connected via the hot-spot reporting the same thing?
