any verizon users?

"Recently Verizon changed its home internet TOS to by default share your location with advertisers. Now Verizon Wireless has also changed its privacy policy to by default share your web browsing history, cell phone location and app usage as well. Whilst there have been a few stories on these changes, internet forums have largely been quiet. Where is the outrage? Or have we just come to accept that ISPs are going to sell our personal information and web browsing habits?"

I know most people cry about the growing problem with BIG BROTHER but honestly i could really give a crap

I mean come on aren't there more things to worry about in todays struggling world

honestly I think its our own fault, we are in the era of the DVR so if no one watches commercials anymore advertisers are trying everything they can to get our attention

I have a Verizon phone, but I don't have any desire to surf the web on such a small screen.
No web service, no worries.

I use it to make phone calls!

I use verizon home Internet, but I'm sure Google sold me out much worse.
