WELCOME
to the house of Harry Plopper
"The man is known as an 'Aussie who lives on
"The man is known as an 'Aussie who lives on a remote island and has a very friendly demeanor, but he is also known as a 'wackos' who can be heard calling from his house and often has to go in and out of his house without the assistance of a cellphone to get around," Cox said in the report. Cox said that the man also said, "I'm in a bad mood right now and I'm having a hard time getting my phone back to normal."
Cox noted that T-Mobile "has also agreed to provide access to data brokers. T-Mobile has also made plans to stop selling their data in order to protect consumers in the future."
In response to this issue, T-Mobile said it is "committed to providing better privacy and security for its customers."
The company also added, "The T-Mobile system was designed to be used in the best public places, and not just a place where someone might have access to their cell phone. This is part of an effort to improve security and privacy within our network. This is not a product designed to target specific users," it said in a statement.
The disclosure of the bounty hunter's location information came after a New York City Councilman, Eric Garcetti, announced last week that he would not seek reelection as mayor next year. A federal judge on Thursday blocked that decision, ruling that the law is unconstitutional and that T-Mobile's data "violated the privacy of Americans by providing the location information without their consent."The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) is pushing for a court "to ban the collection of personal information from companies like Facebook, Google, Twitter and other internet-connected social media sites using a program called PRISM."
A statement from the ACLU, which includes some of the most prominent figures in America's tech industry, reads:
