AT&T, Sprint, Verizon, T-Mobile US pledge, again, to not sell your location to shady geezers. Sorry, we don't believe them

Fool me once, shame on, shame on you. Fool me, you can't get fooled again, OK

US cellphone networks have promised - again - that they will stop selling records of their subscribers' whereabouts to anyone willing to cough up cash.

In a statement on Thursday, AT&T said: "In light of recent reports about the misuse of location services, we have decided to eliminate all location aggregation services - even those with clear consumer benefits," adding: "We are immediately eliminating the remaining services and will be done in March."
