- Letter to The The Interception of Communications Commissioner
(follow up to the response from a local Police directing that IoCC is responsible for investigating breaches of RIPA 2000)

- Copy of above to Lord Northesk (who asked The Home Office who is responsible)

- Copy of the above to Lord Spithead (from Home Office who said it is the Police or other relevant law enforcement agency's responsibility to investigate)

- Letter to Vivian Reding, member of the EU commission who might be interested in what our government is or is not doing to ensure the laws of the land are applied

- Letter (fax? given the short timescales) to Meglena Kuneva EU Commisioner, who is attending the EC meeting in London on Friday and who's interests include consumer protection, proper law enforcement, and tackling people who wish to cheat and defraud consumers

- Letter to Baroness Miller of Chilthorne Domer (Lib Dem, House of Lords) expressing grave concern that she has apparently met with a 'Wolf in sheeps clothing' and simply referencing the history of Phorm as 121Media with a non-technical short explanation of what rootkits are.
The coming week is so important. To add to Pete's comments, what about the reports of trials starting in the Times?

The Times is very chummy with phorm so is likely to have confirmed things with them. A false rumour might increase the phorm share price for a day or so, but when it does not materialise, the price will drop further, yet again.

I suspect a trial will start next week.

The more people we can make aware of the issue next week, the better.

Imagine what will happen if there are 'technical' problems with the trial when the EU is in town?

Now is the time to dig deep into the pockets for stamps, printing, adwords etc. and to start walking around putting leaflets through letter-boxes and under windscreen-wipers.
