some Mobile phone companies on privacy policies

Verizon, AT&T, Sprint and T-Mobile on privacy policies - Nov. 1, 2011

NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- Your phone company knows 
where you live, what websites you visit, what apps 
you download, what videos you like to watch, and 
even where you are. Now, some have begun selling 
that valuable information to the highest bidder.

In mid-October, Verizon Wireless changed its privacy 
policy to allow the company to record customers' 
location data and Web browsing history, combine it 
with other personal information like age and 
gender, aggregate it with millions of other 
customers' data, and sell it on an anonymous 
basis.
