CA Enacts Cell Phone Privacy Law
California became the first state to add privacy protection to cellphone numbers. The new law gives California citizens the right to decide if their cellphone numbers will be listed in a 411 directory. The House Commerce Committee is scheduled to consider, H.R. 3558, the Wireless 411 Privacy Act on Wednesday. A Senate visionof the bill, S. 1963, was approved last week. This bill was amended to allow opt-in by customers prior to their cellphone numbers being listed.
