There are two of us working through all of the forums and threads - sometimes a little cross over occurs.

Be honest we have absolute no guarantees that PHORM wont put maliscious hidden code into its advertisements. When you hear news and stories Memory trick breaks PC encryption. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/7275407.stm the last thing you need is company like PHORM allowed legally to infest your machine. Even if PHORM has become all angelic, Hackers could use their system to help hack. |

Thanks Mick
To be clear, yes I work for an external agency for Phorm - a UK PR agency. My job is solely to take the information Phorm is making available - the interviews, the Q&As etc and place them into these discussions. I believe I am totally open about this - my log in name is pretty clear, and the first line of my introduction clearly states who I work for. It is my job to simply present the facts about Phorm. |

Now, lets just recap, A member of the Phorm tech team came on this board yesterday and categorically stated that “If you are not part of the system ie opted out no data will be processed by phorm. I really hope that's clear.†Clear indeed, although deliberately misleading. Why? Well because although no data is processed, it does still pass through Phorm (as I suspected all along). Consider this quote here from their CEO Kent Ertegrul - http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/03...rul/page3.html Quote:
In that same interview Kent Ertegrul keeps banging on about how bad google is, but see thing is, I can choose not to use google if I so want. With Phorm there is no REAL choice. Data still passes through the Phorm system. I’m more angry now after reading that interview than I was before. |

There is many good questions on here and even those by the media NOT been clearly answered. So why are you here if our questions are not been answered. Its clear there is something extremely dodgy why we going to have hidden adverts you cant see. Why is this even there. why is the system opt out rather than opt in. Why should we have to eben touch webwise (which I feel is rouse) to just pick up a cookie. Why is it at all a flimsy cookie based system to OPT out a system which can be easily deleted by hidden code by PHORM. Like I said there far better system to make sure PHORM is truelly opt out ONE use people mac address held by ISP which all there data will be witheld to be passed to PHORM. Another a program installed on our machine which PHORM would be told to look to see if its active. This being provided by ISP to block PHORM if installed. What guarantees are there about malicious piggy back coding either from PHORM or hackers. Ultimately can we guarantee our banking and online purchasing is safe from PHORM. |

What is EXACTLY the relationship between Privacy International and Phorm. Do they have anything at all to say about your product as stated by the CEO of Phorm? http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/34502219-post702.html Quote:
