Verizon is NOT selling your phone number to telemarketers and that is not what you are opting out of. I think most people here get that but there are a lot of people online who are saying things like, "phew, now that I have opted-out they can't sell my number to telemarketers." They are looking to share CPNI which excludes your phone number, name and address. We can debate whether or not we want them to do that but sharing CPNI is FAR FAR different than selling your phone number to telemarketers. --Paul I think people are misunderstanding this whole thing.
