Not quite "nothing"....
We are talking here about yet another example of corporate arrogance in which the corporates just assume they can invade personal and private information (phone records, etc) because they think it might do them some good.

As far as I'm concerned, this type of crap doesn't get exposed often enough. Perhaps it's time that Congress clamps down and makes it very clear that this type of information is indeed personal and confidential except in the presence of a court order.

I, along with millions of others I'm sure, dont' like the idea of someone else reviewing my life history, including my phone calls. It's nobody's business but mine.... period.

I've dealt with corporate a-holes who seem to think they are entitled to my personal information. I've had them ask over and over for information that has nothing to do with our working relationship. And over and over again, I've told them no, and rightfully so.

The fact that they could simply go out and unethically / illegally get the information on their own is quite disturbing in my opinion. If I wanted them to have it, I would give it to them. If I don't give it to them, they should have no means to subvert my wishes.
