I said to someone earlier that the Phorm share price graph should be accompanied by the death sound from Pacman :)

Ah - the old ones are always the best

That last pic is like my batting average - going down! Here's hoping what happened to me happens to Phorm...

I got dropped

I'm considering it if I have time. Maybe a gif without sound first and then a flash animation with sound. I have a portrait commission to phinish ( haha, I'm leaving this unintended typo in, I must be brainwashed ) first as a memorial tribute so I'd like to get that completed before I do anything else today.

The seasons only just started, plenty of time to improve - good luck :)

My email to emma.sanderson@bt.com :

Hello Emma,

I was wondering what BT plans to do with regards to the illegal trials of the Phorm technology in 2006/2007?

Given that the press have reported the number of participants involved in 2007 could have been as high as 108 000 people how do you intend to defend millions of violations of the following laws:

European Convention on Human Rights
Human Rights Act
Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act
Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations
Computer Misuse Act
Fraud Act
Torts (Interference with Goods) Act
Data Protection Act
Copyright, Designs and Patents Act
Council of Europe's Convention on Cybercrime

It would be useful to have a statement from you for my dissertation which you should be proud to know is a critical evaluation of the BT PLC trials of Phorm's technology in 2006/2007 based on an analysis of the above laws and regulations.

Sincerely,

Alexander Hanff

I'm sticking to umpiring this season. Mind you that's a bit risky these days as well - just ask Brian Jerling!

Fantastic Alexander.

I don't propose that you will see a favourable response but keeping the pressure up this way is a must.

I'd also suggest that you up your personal security and get a Geiger counter. I don't want to read that the Russians got you ;)

Hi there,

I'm the author of Dephormation... I'm going to be looking for a new home shortly. My VM contract terminates 20 April so no more vm.d.g ... Can I join you lot instead? :)

Regards the Dephormation alert you see if images are embedded in cable forum from the Phorm site, that's by design. Because you've got links in your page to a Phorm/OIX/Webwise domain, the add on gives you an alert.

I read Simon's posts regarding the Home Office with interest. After the Police refused to investigate a RIPA complaint, I've been trying to get a reply out of the Home Office for the last few days. I phoned up today, and got bluffed off... they told me that the team concerned don't have a telephone number and only accept complaints by email. I haven't had a reply.

See http://security.homeoffice.gov.uk/ripa/about-ripa/

Similarly ICO, no reply to any email I've sent.

I'm also following the Earl of Northesks question to the Government that was supposedly to be answered by MoJ/DfBERR. That's almost two weeks overdue now for a reply.

My MP has also asked the DfBERR for an explanation, and also had no reply.

I've more or less run out of people to complain to now. And had no explanation from anyone.

Pete.

Business Enterprise & Regulatory Reform."

And they have forwarded my e-mail. So much for RIPA being the responsibility of the Home Office?

A confused and a bit angry Simon.

I had a written reply from my MP a few days ago saying he had written to John Hutton, the Business Secretary. i.e. the same department, passing on my concerns.

So same message as Home Office from a Labour MP.

I don't know if they are trying to deflect this by dealing with the advertising bit rather than the privacy bit?

This department is responsible for regulatory reform though so I don't know if that has a bearing.

I don't expect to hear anything until after the local elections.

(I did ask him to raise the BT/RIPA issue with the Home Office, so maybe that's what the HO told my MP to do).

Hi Pete :welcome:

First of can I thank you for the Dephormation Firefox add-on. Also many thanks for clarifying the issue I had earlier this morning, having not seen it activate before I started thinking the worst.

I'm sure you'll be more than welcome here on CF.

Thanks again for your work :)

Best wishes

Joanne

Excellent.

I've been listening to Clash, I Fought the Law (and the Law won) (live) lately, on nice and loud.

Always brings a smile to my face when I'm losing motivation. :)
