Angry Verizon Will Start Sharing Your Private Data

Sounds like those weasels at Verizon are at it again. For some reason, they now think a good thing to do is take your private information such as "services purchased (including specific calls you make and receive), billing info, technical info and location info." and "share this with 'affiliates, agents and parent companies.'"

Unless you call em and tell them you "opt out" from "Agreeing".

Why would I want this? Why would I want the details of my family's calls, purchases and whereabouts sent to God knows who for what?

Here is the article I found talking about it. I plan to call Verizon tomorrow, confirm the details in the article, and give them an earful about this.

BUMP - every VZ customer should see this. I will add that the most direct way to opt out is a call to customer service - be sure to mention to them how much this decision on their part really makes you a happy customer.
