To me, it's absolutely unclear what the author is actually talking about. Should telcos be responsible for monitoring the devices in their network?

Mobile networks provide Internet access with all the risks associated to the Internet. But the radio access is reasonably secure, if we compare with public WiFi. It's encrypted, authenticated and the operators are more trustworthy than the random person that puts up an Access-Point with years-old firmware. (the operators have something to loose here)
