The reason is simple. It makes them money. They can get paid by bloatware software publishers per installation sold. If the carrier itself appears to be the publisher (ex: “AT&T Navigation”), then you can be sure the motivation is the same. It’s either an add-on service they sell or a way to tie into 3rd party offerings.
