Over on the
BT Beta suport forum, BT Spokesman Mark W has stated;
"I understand you might not be particularly trusting of myself and BT at the moment but this isn't a contradiction. What was being talked about in the quote there is that data would be mirrored but not profiled, what we're talking about now is that if opted out data would not even be mirrored. What we're aiming to have in the update next week is a set of diagrams and a walk through explaining how the system will work when it's live, I hope that this will make things a lot clearer for people."
So BT seem to be constantly modifying their position on how their opt-out will work, presumably as a result of pressure from their customers. Their current position appears to be that if a customer opts-out of the Phorm system, then that customer's web traffic
will not be
mirrored or profiled. This arrangement is the
only one which could persuade me to stay with Virgin Media if they introduce Phorm's system to their network.
So what have you got to say, VM?
