Default Verizon Now Monitors, Shares User Web Surfing Info

Verizon Now Monitors, Shares User Web Surfing Info

By Kevin Parrish

A new change in Verizon's privacy policy grants it the right to track
user browsing habits, app usage and physical location.

Like the Eye of Sauron watching over the lands of Middle-earth,
Wednesday Verizon Wireless announced that it is now tracking the
location of subscriber devices, recording search terms and websites
they visit via the wireless network, and recording their app and
device feature usage. This information will supposedly be used to
make mobile ads more relevant to subscribers, and to be used for
"certain business and marketing reports."
