Hot off of the heals of the announcement by Twitter that they will start tracking your movement on the internet, AT&T announced via their privacy policy that they will begin to sell their customer’s information to third parties. The new program will allow them to sell information about your location based upon your browser history, your apps and/or your WiFi connection.
The good news is that you can opt out of this by following these directions:
• Start by clicking here, which will take you to AT&T’s opt-out page (http://www.att.com/cmpchoice)
• Log in with your phone number and password
• You will then find yourself on AT&T’s privacy settings page, which looks like the following screen capture:
• Check the box next to each wireless phone line you wish to opt-out with
• Click the “Submit” button
