How to Opt Out of AT&T's Proposed User Data Harvesting and Reselling

You may have heard about the recent preview of a change to AT&T’s privacy policy that would allow them to sell your data (location, browser history, calling frequency, etc) to marketing firms. This link has the updated privacy policy.

Luckily, you can opt out. Simply login to your AT&T wireless account at this link and check the boxes for any number(s) that you do not want them to sell your data from (in any form, aggregated or not). It takes seconds to login and do, so if this matters to you, opt out now!
