Verizon Wireless Now Collecting Your Web, Location, App Data

And remember your "opt-out" only opts you out of them the data for specific purposes defined in the opt-out. It doesn't stop them using the data for other purposes.

Or have we just come to accept that ISPs are going to sell our personal information and web browsing habits?"
