Re: I got that letter last week...
I never got it, or if I did, I don't remember seeing it and just tossed it. My fault.
Thanks to dslreports.com, I have a second chance. |

| I never got the letter or maybe I tossed it because I pay on-line. But this is simply amazing to me that they can sell "proprietary" information. Doesn't that contradict the term proprietary ?? The term CUSTOMER proprietary information....it belongs to the customer..you talk about an invasion of privacy. I'm just thankful for the post and immediately opted out of such BS. |

I'm just thankful for the post and immediately opted out of such BS. I find it amazing that the law requires customers to take an action if they don't want the info sold. It should be the other way around, in a perfect world. But selling this info to third parties would be too annoying for Verizon if they had to get permission from every customer to do so. So, why not just make it so the customer has to take action to protect their privacy and the problem is solved. 
Scary, isn't it?
