Bill aims to block disclosure of cell phone numbers
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Gov. Sonny Perdue’s measure to prevent wireless companies from disclosing the cell phone numbers of customers in a national directory without their consent cleared the Senate with no debate Wednesday.
The chamber voted 48-0 in favor of the measure sponsored by Sen. David Shafer (R-Duluth).
Under Senate Bill 46, wireless companies can not charge customers for refusing to have their number published in the directory. It also requires companies to clearly inform subscribers that if they agree to have their number published, they will be charged for both solicited and unsolicited calls under the terms of the wireless plan.
