   It took fifteen years filled with constant scandal, but the FCC   
   finally recently announced that it would be “cracking down on”   
   wireless carrier abuse of consumer location data, thanks to pressure   
   from our new post-Roe reality. This “crackdown” involves politely   
   asking the nation’s top wireless carriers to disclose what kind of   
   location data they were collecting, and who they’ve been sharing and   
   selling it to.   
      
   Wireless carriers have now shared their responses with the FCC, all of   
   which have been posted to the agency’s website:   
      
      "Today, I’m publishing the responses I received from mobile carriers   
      on how they handle geolocation data to help shed light on this issue   
      for consumers. Additionally, I have asked the Enforcement Bureau to   
      launch a new investigation into mobile carriers' compliance with FCC   
      rules that require carriers to fully disclose to consumers how they   
      are using and sharing geolocation data," said Chairwoman Rosenworcel.
