So the government will merely have to pay Phorm to get access to your web browsing habits rather than be required to obtain a court warrant as the law currently stands, or rather, they'd have to join the back of the queue.

That's dangerous...

But you and I would be blissfully unaware that this was happening as it wouldn't be disclosed because it's PRIVATE.

Well now you know what it feels like to be 'phormed'! ..

Seriously though, I think it's to have 'pro-phormers' such as yourself around here .. we should be open to all as long as it's a reasonable discussion with no insults/flaming etc .. I'm all for listening to all sides of an argument ..

@Hammy

Not invading your privacy, you put that info into the public domain its now a matter of public record.

try googling "deko" see what you can find.... erm nothing as I purposely chose that nick so its amongst a sea of other info.

Can I ask a simple question, so why are you here?

You're well aware of the concerns people have, you've been following it closely. Even getting ejected from BadPhorm at one point IIRC.

The reason this will never go away as a grass roots campaign is simply this. What is at stake is a basic freedom to communicate.

Freedom to communicate privately, securely, and with integrity. That's what RIPA, Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights, the EC Framework Directive 2002/58/EC, and a ton of other carefully considered legislation both UK and EU protects.

The value of the net is in its content. There is no value created by Phorm.

Rather than contribute great content, Phorm have a business plan which pilfers that content in its entirety.

That's not creating value, that's stealing value. Its commercial copyright theft, and it is criminal according to the Copyright Act.

So privacy? Communications integrity? Copyright? It would be illegal to switch Phorm on. Which reminds me, I must write again to the authorities about events in 2006/7. I haven't done that for ooh, at least 18 hrs.

And I've got 200 envelopes, a wad of A4, 5 ink cartridges and 60 first class stamps to get through... before I go back to get some more...

Pete.

still not legal to intercept and profile kids surfing the wibble but what phorm care they wont know who sat in the pilot seat will they.

Dephormation - as I said in my first post, I posted to refute accusations that I was already posting.

As for Badphorm - I can't get into that either at my office or from home. They must have found a way of blocking me as they don't like anyone posting there who is not on-message.

No idea why you waste your time with 2006/7. What happened is obviously not thought to be of concern to the ICO.
But you feel free to keep writing the letters if it cheers you up.

If you want more targetted ads, why wait for Phorm, just download some adware, they will track your browsing and give you relevant ads. There's lots out there, though going to an adware publishers site probably won't let you download the client, you'll have to find some software that they have bundled it with.

@hamsterwheel
I repeat:

"Across the entire internet no-one has yet given a reasoned, valid argument as to why any USER would want this spyware."

If you have come here for a reasoned debate please give us your pro phorm argument, <Edit Rob: deleted:>

Re: Virgin Media Phorm Webwise Adverts [Updated: See Post No. 1, 77, 102 & 797]
 

Yet.


Why do you think we keep writing letters?
