Cell phone directory makes some nervous
Consumers' passion for privacy in California and other Western states could signal an uphill battle for the proponents of a national cell phone directory, reports MSNBC. "They're not just worried about privacy invasion. There's a pocketbook factor: Cell phone users must pay for many of the calls they receive. Under the proposed bill, cellular carriers must first get existing customers to authorize the inclusion of their mobile numbers in the 411 database. For new customers, carriers must clearly and conspicuously give them the option to decline. The bill would also ensure that no customer need pay a fee for having cell phones unlisted." |
