Britney Spears’ phone and internet use heavily monitored

Even though “X Factor” judge Britney Spears has made huge improvements to her life after remaining under conservatorship for over four years, her family still keep a close eye on her internet and cell phone use, according to reports.

“Britney’s cell phone and internet use is restricted and heavily monitored, and this is done for her protection,” a source tells Radar Online. “Britney’s father, Jamie, and her fiance, Jason, want to make sure that her former manager, Sam Lufti, isn’t able to contact her. Britney and Jason essentially share a cell phone, and it’s routinely checked to see who has been calling.

The site also reported, “Brit’s computer usage is also restricted in the sense that certain websites are blocked. Her family doesn’t want Britney reading negative stories that would upset her.”

Lutfi is suing Britney and her parents for defamation and breach of contract. Lufti was upset with Lynne Spears’ portrayal of him in her book, Through The Storm, that discussed Lutfi’s role in Britney’s life leading up to her very public meltdown, which resulted in Jamie gaining conservatorship of his daughter in 2008.

Jason Trawick, Jamie and Lynne Spears, and Britney’s current manager Larry Rudolph are all expected to take the stand against Lufti in the upcoming trial. But Britney herself will not give evidence.
