Regulars will know that I am very wary of us being seen as "organised".
I think that one of the strongest things working in our favour is that we are simply customers of the main ISPs who object to a new proposal that will affect our privacy. If we become a single voice then we lose that advantage and it just becomes a fight between two large groups and people may not identify with us in the same way. My experience is that once a movement becomes "organised" it becomes seen as political and the accusations start to fly about the "real reasons" for any protests. We'd end up spending any air-time justifying our existence and most likely alienate the whole of Middle England who still smell commies at every turn. I would have thought that these forums should suffice especially this one as it has the PM facility. It is also wide open to scrutiny and transparency is one of our key issues. ---------- Post added at 12:30 ---------- Previous post was at 12:27 ---------- Quote:

Might even be worth looking at a registration fee to allow you to dsiplay a logo saying you are a partner to this body and any infringments would be dealt with... |

I have a lot of copyright publications that has been given to me for free by the publishers and authors. They are on a secure section of the site, for the benefit of my members only. One interesting point also came up.. Would the use of BT by implimenting the Phorm profiling system be an intent to breach website copyright? Unfortunatly a test case may be needed to decide the answer to that one. A case could be taken forward before the system went live, and that case would be strengthened by the fact that as BT have publicly admitted profiling sites in 2006. Unfortunatly a question was just raised in the session, and would be something for a more experienced solicitor would need to look at. It is a nice warm cuddly feeling to know as a web master I have lots of rights in my favour. |

In the meantime pointing people to the existing forums and sites like The Register should suffice to raise awareness and maybe encourage some more people to take an active interest. Dephormation Pete has a knack of being one step ahead of most of us so I'm going to sit back and wait to see his take on this. I suspect that it will be loud and proud whatever it is. |

Have to agree with you Peter in the mean time keep plugging on slipping in the odd reminder and a mention of the marriage between British Telecom and Webwise/phorm seemed funny having a poster unregistered posting on ISPreview from France and knows about Phorm so we are getting the message far and wide...

I see BT have extended the £29.99 reconnect offer to September.

The Tehran Times has covered the story and I even found a link to it on the Iraq Museum International website of all places. At this rate we may even see a story or two in the British press. Speaking of which - anybody want to predict which football team will be sponsored by Phorm next season - my money is on Web Scam United. :cool: |
Re: Virgin Media Phorm Webwise Adverts [Updated: See Post No. 1, 77, 102 & 797]
Nope will be a local team like the Walsall Webwise or Peterborough Phorm
