Your Cellphone Records are for Sale....
Your Cellphone Records are for Sale....

I had a chance encounter today with the fact that my cell phone records are up for sale to anyone with $110 burning a hole in their pocket. I have to say I am outraged. I can’t believe that cell phone companies can sell a record of anyone I call. It makes me sick to my stomach just thinking about it.  Anyone else have experience where your cell phone records have been used?

(UPDATE)

Evidently I am not the only one concerned.  Here’s a CNET article about a congressional hearing about it:
