Liversage also made it clear the tests were unrelated to customer perception. "This test is not a customer referendum," he said. "It is simply to ensure that the technology works correctly." So if the customers are going to have nothing to do or say about the test why are they bothering to publicise it this time and how will we find out if it was successful or not? Or, as they have shown so far, they just don't care! |

Erm... so, how will the ICO be influenced if they can't ask the customers because no one knows who they are? I suppose the extremely low number of complaints because 10,000 is not many will help the ICO draw a conclusion that no one cares? Or maybe they will care enough to complain and surprise the ICO.

I wonder if Channel 5 and in particular the Gadget show would be interested, especially after their piece on it last week.
I've also written to my MP again expressing my disgust at the governments inaction on this issue. I have also told him I have already been in touch with Mrs Reding and enclosed a copy of her mail. |

Annoying that I will be nearer Aberdeen than London for the BT Group plc 2008 Annual General Meeting held at 10.30am on Wednesday 16 July at the Barbican centre,Silk Street London, EC2Y 8DS :( Does anyone have a chronological unbiased list of events since this Phorm thing started? Radio 5 Live wants any ideas for business stories to report on. The fall in shares and the reasons behind it certainly make for an interesting story. Go to BBC 5 Live web page and submit on the Contact Us form there (Wake Up To Money is on Monday to Friday and us on the slot before 6am) Hank |
Re: BT Protest IRL
OK, I'd like to help spread the word. How about a paragraph of text people can cut and paste around the interweb?
Please include time, date, purpose, etc. |

One problem: 10:30am on a Wednesday is not the best time for a protest. It's fine if you want to stick to the AGM timetable, but far fewer people will show up on a weekday, especially when it's not even lunch hour. Trust me, I've been to many protests in my life. Weekday protests are always *much* smaller. Please consider this. |

Don't forget the people inside the AGM.
I know Florence has plans and there is Richard Hawkins' kind offer. I think this may have been touched on several weeks ago, but is there a deadline for submitting written questions to the AGM? If it's on the agenda, it presumably gets sent out to all attendees, so the question would need to be well phrased to attract their interest (or worry about their investment). Does having a written question preclude a verbal one at the meeting? A question submitted a month earlier may not take into account the latest developments. There may need to be coordination between questioners. |

non BT CF members can join the BT run messageboard if you want to also post there BTW, expect any unpopular posts to be edited or deleted though by the BT Employees.

A quick look today shows the link I posted to Ian Livingstone's pay deal and even someone using the "Le-le-legal" gag that I wrote here. I only posted these last night and there's a number of prolific "contributors" over there who seem to get all of their info by reading this thread and then claiming the ideas as their own. Come on chaps - give credit or try to be original. There's nothing wrong with posting across the forums to get fresh input but just trawling for ideas and then claiming them without due credit is no better than what Phorm want to do. I'm glad that there are a couple of people here who post points from C/F onto this forum cos it saves me having to wade through all of the rest of it. Thankfully the info from C/F that gets posted here seems to be properly credited and linked. In a way, closing the original threads on this forum did us a favour. There's far more useful info on here now and a lot less of the waffle and very few "Yeah dude!" postings that are fillers on the C/F forum. I'd say that this thread has been more mature as a result and there has been a constant flow of ideas and relevent discussion and I'm proud of what we've done so far and I'm more than proud to be associated with everyone who contributes here. I do not pay BT to spy on my family." |
