California is the first state to enact the cell number privacy law supported by Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger. Consumers should have the right to decide whether they want a privacy block on their number or whether they want to make it public. According to this law, a written consent would be required by the customer to make their number public and those who do not wish to indulge in this service would not be charged.
