Cell Phones and Privacy

Prepaid cell phones are a good way for customers to keep their privacy while owning a cell phone. There are several legitimate reasons to own a prepaid cellphone. Legitimate uses of this service depend on an individual's lifestyle. For people who do not use a cell phone frequently prepaid service is much more economical. A prepaid cell phone service lets you control your spending, as you will not be able to make calls once you have used up your available minutes. You do not need to worry about having to keep up with phone bills, but rather, pay as you need the service. If you use a cell phone only for emergencies, it makes much more sense to pay even $1 per minute than to pay $30 or more per month. Also, technology wise people can buy just a simple flip phone instead of a smartphone if they aren’t technology savvy. I do not believe the prepaid phones should be outlawed. Although some criminal use them people shouldn’t be forced to pay an absurd price for a simple cell phone.
