post up the network diagram gif for Ellie Jane ,spell it out " this kit is sitting directly on the other end of YOUR broadband wire, and all your visited websites are tracked i full, were you buy your shoes online, the http pages that are taking your details are being collected, processed ,weather you opt-in to seeing these ad's or not"

all her kids movements online, their buying ringtones and othe goods online are also being stalked whatever they do,werever they go, even the sun editors and reporters that use these ISP's at work or at home will also have all their web traffic no matter how mundane, or exclusive stories and leads they turn up or communicate with are effected.

why are you Ellie Jane, so willing to take the webwise (ex-rootkit supplyer) sites word for it as fact ?, they are trying to sell it to you, and thoughs less tech like you....after all

why would you take the word of the sellers,rather than take the word of the webs techs, and creators, that say it really does break many UK laws and steals web content....

does Ellie Jane not want to hide her kids,and her buying habits from totally unknown people operating these bits of interception kit sat on the other end of HER BB wire for profit,she's really sure they dont employ those bad people she mentions or really,really sure any other type she can imagine for that matter, how strange....

still have nothing to hide Ellie Jane .

Don't forget to mention that it is actually a criminal offense in the UK and EU as well.

Alex,

I would look to get press releases out to - London paper, london lite, metro, daily mail.

They are all distributed across the metropolitan area. As far as I can tell these are the most widely read.

I will be sending out a press release to as many news/media companies as I can at the beginning of next week, I will add them to the list.

a digital ad targeting promotion firm, talking to 3rd party agency people, about how they promote the ad agency firms products..... ;)

"Phorm seeks a digital agency
by Andrew McCormick Media Week 01-Jul-08
"..
The ad-targeting firm is now seeking an agency, initially working on a project basis, to promote its consumer-facing initiative Webwise -
...
Hugo Drayton, UK chief executive of Phorm, said....
"We've talked to a few hand- selected people," said Drayton. "We're not in a pitch situation, but we are sounding out a few agencies. We're thinking about how OIX and Webwise will develop after going live and about what marketing and promotion we can do."

That report really made me smile :)

I suspect that Phorm have suddenly realised if they finally take the plunge and brave the legal retribution against Phorm's WebWise/illegal interception, the public outcry is going to get a lot worse. I think they may have previously thought; once it's in the system the noise would die down.

We know it wouldn't.

So many straws they seem to clutch. It's the equivalent of Software Engineers silver bullet syndrome. Let's fix and make it work better (or create a better illusion) it by throwing people at it. It doesn't work! :D

You are welcome to email them on my behalf ;)

In fact anyone is welcome to email any press/media companies with news of the event, it will be one less email for me to send :)

I expect most will ignore it, not care, etc. (especially given the forum in question ;) ), & continue with the usual rubbish of "If you have nothing to hide you have nothing to worry about" etc.

Re:Is your Internet Provider spying on you.
A known supplier of rootkits on one side and the best IT academics on the other,If you have little knowledge of the Internet and its working procedures who would you trust get on down and stop Phorm.

All it will be is some shares being put in a different pot, probably so they are availalbe for option exercises for US employees.

Not everything has to be a major conspiracy you know !!!

Wrong way - they are no longer available to US citizens / residents.
