Glad I no longer have a cell phone. Now, deleting Facebook, Google, et al. Going totally off the grid. Feeling good. Love family but don't want intrusion in my life. Good bye. Not that people will care.

When will these phone companies realize they are violating privacy & moral decency FOR PROFIT?!?🤨 Recall when tv talk shows went too far resulting in MURDERS?!? We must continue to value past lessons or repeat our mistakes endangering lives!

I ask how they got my number & call the CEO’s office of the company they say. Yesterday it was one of the credit bureaus. Are they now selling our info? The person I spoke with said no (who called me back within 1hr) can we believe them after the Experian breach?

Chinese bike rental companies are selling our bike routes. How about that? In Germany this has been discovered lately. Turns out rental only business is not profitable 😱

Another good reason for an informationtax.

Duplicate whatever the EU did for privacy rights and protection.

It is time for America to unite behind Senator Harris. KamalaLeads Harris2020

What about social media selling location, likes, dislikes, and other info

This should be a bipartisan issue. And exactly why we don't want Huawei or other Chinese telecom companies here.

KamalaHarris yes please
