Verizon's Plan To Share Your Call Data Generates Blog Scrutiny
Just a little over a month ago, we alerted Verizon Wireless users to an opportunity to opt-out of Verizion sharing some of your information with unnamed third parties. Specifically, the information is subscriber’s CPNI, which consists of what numbers you call, what numbers call you, and how much the call costs. It is not linked to your name, number, or address.
Now, Ars Technica, RCR Wireless, and the Skydeck blog are voicing concerns about the potential privacy questions. Skydeck has a scan of the notice up. The number to opt-out is 1-800-333-9956.
