To determin who you are, there are a few ways that the program could announce you.
1.) IP address, usually is not a DHCP assigned address, but is static by carrier. They can easily find who has what service by looking at the first three octects of an IP address.
2.) ESN information transmitted along with the stream. ESN id's phone model, make, AND carrier if it is a locked phone. Which all VZW and Sprint ones are. Not sure how this'd work on a GSM unlocked phone.
3.) Phone number transmitted along with the stream. Yes, the program CAN have access to your phone number, assuming security certificates and such are in good order.
