Cell Phones and Privacy

I feel that prepaid cell phones have a number of legitimate uses that should prevent them from being controlled or banned by the law. The first one of these uses would be a phone used by someone who does not use a phone very often and is trying to save money. They are quite economical as they only come with a certain amount of money and time on them only allowing for certain calls. This is also a useful option for those who might have amassed bad credit and cannot get a cell phone plan with giant companies because of their credit. Another example would be a good phone for teaching children about how cell phones work and the importance of only using a cell phone when necessary. If there are no options for texting or internet then the child will be using the phone for its original purpose aka phone calls. All in all, these economical phones are pretty useful for those who cannot afford actual monthly phone plans and taking them away would be removing a crucial line of communication for those who cannot afford it.
