Every little helps, everyday the erosion builds, everyday their model fails a little more as the knowledge spreads..:D
If BTPhorm go ahead and many of us turn to encryption I think we should run a pool on when some clueless minister (Jacqui?) suggests that encryption should be outlawed on the net.

The problem for HMG is that it would interfere with data retention policies. My records would probably show that I only ever visit one site. My encrypted proxy - in another country.

Yet another reason for HMG to outlaw Phorm and the other parasites.

Nope.

I quoted it because we just need to keep spreading the word, but there is real irony there, trust me.

-Stephen Hawking

Finally got a Mighty Floyd reference in.:D

:notopic: Ok, who can spot the delicious irony relating to the quote I just used?
Isn't Stepehn Hawking the person who passed with honours and has an illness something not sure if it was motor something seem to remember him in the news a lot.

He has motor neurone disease and despite this holds Newtons chair as the Lucasian professor of mathematics at Cambridge, he is regarded as the greatest scientific mind since Newton or Einstein.

I like his books.

We haven't found the irony yet...sorry mods, just a bit of morale boosting.

- Letter to Baroness Miller of Chilthorne Domer 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.

Dear Cable Forum,

Since I spoke in the Lords about data protection, I have learnt more about the gaps in the regulations covering organisations such as Phorm and their webwise system. I agree that there are serious questions to be answered about information interception through ISPs and its implications for web users and website owners.

I am grateful to several forum members for contributing to my understanding of the next steps that can be taken in legislation.

Data protection and privacy are increasingly under threat in this country, partly because the internet is awash with people’s personal information. The general public has, like me, a pretty basic understanding of the technology, so it has been especially useful to have such a lively correspondence following the debate. Thank you for working hard to bring to light the issues involved in this case. While the Lords may not seem to you to be a natural place to debate questions of online data security, I assure you that the Liberal Democrats in both Houses will work hard to ensure the better regulation of data protection both off- and on-line.

More worrying is that it seems to be the only place that debate is taking place.

Many people believe that there is already sufficient legislation for this to be stopped.

For some reason, it's just not being used.
