I had no idea that a SIM controlled so much. However, I would be much more concerned with my SIM-less CDMA handset being cracked than with a sim card that is easily replaced.

Cracked encryption allows hackers to potentially clone your SIM, priovided you're still using an out-dated encryption protocol.

Just read the AndroidPolice article. I'm guessing that since Sprint's LTE SIMs are for just that - LTE - they have no bearing on OTA authentication (where the vulnerability lies), and this is a non-issue for us.
