I expect this will become common as the only practical way to contact victims, witnesses, and jurors. Not only is there no protection from internet publication of cell phone numbers under the new Access Rules, Section 4.10 (c) specifically forbids any district court or court of limited jurisdiction from adopting any rule restricting the internet publication of these telephone numbers.
Cell phone numbers are, of course, not published in the Dex Telephone Book or competing paper directories. So this information will be quite valuable commercially. Telemarketers, political operatives and others will embrace this new source of information regarding thousands of Montanans. Google and an increasing array of commercial companies can be expected to download and index these cell phone numbers as well.
