Wilhelm's contract runs until February 2027, and BR will begin the formal process to find his successor. His tenure was marked by digital transformation, integration of BR Mediathek into ARD Mediathek, and reforms at Bayern 2, but also drew criticism from council members over perceived inadequate involvement.

BR exposes data leak in German mobile networks
A Bayerischer Rundfunk (BR) investigation found that during call setup German mobile networks transmitted technical smartphone data to the caller side. In tests, networks operated by Telekom, Vodafone and Telefónica forwarded identifiers and device information—including IMEI, device model and sometimes OS version—before the called party answered. Regulators and security agencies said these fields are unnecessary for call setup and create risks for fingerprinting-based targeted attacks. Netzbetreiber reported technical adjustments: Telefónica implemented changes, Vodafone limited transmitted information and Deutsche Telekom announced network adjustments. The GSMA informed its global membership and recommended removing unnecessary signalling data to enforce data minimisation in modern IP-based telephony stacks.

- Test calls showed networks operated by Telekom, Vodafone and Telefónica forwarded data such as IMEI, device model and sometimes OS version before the call was answered.
- Security authorities including the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution classified the vulnerability as security-relevant and warned of fingerprinting risks.
