Do you have Verizon Wireless?
Did you know that VZW by default collects information about you and then apparently shares this information with their affiliates? I sure as hell didn’t approve this but I discovered it purely by accident and discovered that it was set to "OK to Share my CPNI" (Customer Proprietary Network Information)
Check this out. It’s in your VZW.com profile.
Verizon Wireless and its affiliates (the "Verizon Companies") provide services to you. In doing so, we may each collect certain information that is made available to us solely by virtue of our relationship with you, such as quantity, technical configuration, type, destination, location and amount of use of the telecommunications services you purchase. This information and related billing information is known as Customer Proprietary Network Information (CPNI). The Federal Communications Commission and other regulators require the Verizon Companies to protect your CPNI.
In order to better serve your communications needs and to identify, offer and provide products and services to meet your requirements, we need your permission to share this information among our affiliates, agents and parent companies (including Vodafone) and their subsidiaries.
